How do I remove the frosted film from my window?

Removal is as easy as peeling the film away from the glass. If your film has been installed for several years and doesn't peel easily from the glass then it may have a sticky adhesive so use Gila Window Film Removal solution.

I am thinking you need to scrape it off the glass with a razor. Then soak and wash the window with an ammonia based liquid.Good Luck. It should all come off. You should wear a mask while scraping and vacuuming up the paint off the window.

You have to have long nail. But from my experience, the difficulty level of removing the film was 4/5 where 5 is the easiest and 1 is the most difficult. Hope this helps.

Hi Vanessa,Its very easy to remove it, as it have sticking agent at its boundary (not in the entire area of the glass ), its easy to remove and reapply it.Regards,Abhishek

I've never had to remove it from my window. In time it loses its ability to bead the rain. I would imagine you can remove it by simply washing your windows. Hope that helps.

use ash from fp. when it's cold, dip a damp cloth in the ash and scrub the glass. Another review mentioned this when I was looking for a glass cleaner. Works great!! no $$$ : )

A heat gun of some sort (such as a hair drier) should loosen up the adhesive enough for it come be pulled off. Then you would want to clean the residue off the door.

Very easy to remove. Just lift corner of film and peel. Make sure you keep the film clean and use the original paper liner for storage.

Hi Barbara, I bought the SKrAPr for my sister in law so don't posess the item. As for taking the film off a car window...that will totally depend on what film is on and who/how it was applied. I do not think it will scratch the glass like a razor blade but I would try it first of course.

The item is very easy to peel and put on to the window and there is no residue left. We have not yet removed the sticker from the window. I guess soapy warm water should get it off easily. Hope that helps

I gave it to my cousin as a Christmas gift, so really have no idea. I would think just pull it off the window, clean it and suction cup it back up.

The unit comes with a solid panel and frosted glass panel. Simply reverse the panels for the second look. The frosted glass is not transparent when used with the other panel. If you wanted it to be slightly transparent, it appears you could use the frosted glass alone. You could also easily replace the panels with mirrors, mercury glass, etc.

It's like frosted glass, maybe more like wet frosted glass. There won't be any that are clear like glass or it will effect the texture like cellophane. There is clear contact paper that is cheap and acts like lamination. If thin is ok there is industrial cling wrap. If it's for weather proofing I used this. I put a wood dowell taped to the end and on nice weekends I roll the plastic with the dowell and tie it to the top of the window. The rest of the Windows have the plastic taped all the way around for better insulation. It works just as well as double pane windows and allows loads of light through. Very helpful for a window that faces the neighbor's house or alley. It's like frosted glass, maybe more like wet frosted glass.

The film does not have adhesive, it clings to the window (static, I think). After you measure & clean your windows, cut the film w/a sharp blade to the exact dimensions if your window. Spray the solution (water mixed w/a small amount of non scented dish soap-not handsoap) liberally on the window & on the side of the film that will go on the window. The spray allows you to easily move the film into place. Once in place, squeegee the film from the center outward to remove air bubbles.

Remove the blue film and affix "that" side with glue to the tube, tire, etc.

Yes. It is easily removable. Begin peeling, and spray window generously between the window and film as you SLOWLY peel. Any adhesive that is left over may be removed with a razor blade.

I pulled off the gridded side first and carefully placed where I wanted the sticker to go. Make sure your window or whatever surface you are putting it on is clean and dry. Then place the sticker on the surface and rub out any bubbles and rub where the sticker is and around it. Afterward, carefully pull the "foggy" side off in a zig-zag like motion, it should come off clean and sticking to the surface.
