R&R's made a bit easier


Key West
Don't know about the rest of you all, but almost EVERY time I strip and re-tint a car, I will miss a little spot of glue that sticks out like a sore thumb once I apply the new film. And yes, I am very meticulous when cleaning!!!
SO... I figured out that after you clean, spray the window with Rubbing Alcohol. Any glue that might have been missed will turn white. Easy to see and remove after that! beer.gif

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
