[@TUXXREVIEWS]

Excellent! I was really concerned it wouldnt work but it did. ALSO update it still looks great 6/4/2022

[@johnbaidas]

3M General Adhesive Remover 08987 works great on glues. Doesn't hurt paint or plastic.

Thank you for this video! We had a customer come in with a Cadillac CTS coupe that had tinted headlights and this video was really helpful! Thank you!!

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

Happy to help

You had to KZbin how to run your business?? Yikes good thing for this guy lmao.

[@nathanc6593]

alcohol is fine for your paint. we use it to clean panels before wrapping in vinyl all the time.

[@skloumanchocos5666]

I just went and bought sandpaper and clear 2K cause that glue is not coming off. Will try your method before i go full restoration mode.

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

Be careful with the sandpaper - you got this!

[@waynekerwin8891]

Ex dabber here thank god for my old stash of iso alcohol mate took me 5 min great video 🙏

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

that would work, just make sure its not too strong and hurts plastic

[@miguelponce5949]

Did you end up having any problem with the headlights getting hazy after doing this?

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

Not at all. Its like the 1st owner covered them and it was in a time capsule. I have some recent pictures on tuxx reviews Instagram. It looks perfect

I tinted out my tail lights 10 years ago and after a decade in the Florida Sun being baked every single day they are completely cooked right on, Completely dried out and hard . A heat gun is not going to do anything at this point for me. is there another option for me or do I need to simply just get a new tail lights?

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

Mine were cooke don from the FL sun as well. You have to heat up the tint to remove. - Its all in the video but be careful to not melt the plastic lense

[@mhbeh738]

Mine was cooked like f. Heat gun or boiled water doesnt help much, just knife it. But its a test of patience and knife skills. Good luck

[@whou85]

Heat gun and a plastic razor thank me later

[@thejerm2982]

Why not just sand it down?

[@kevintombs6267]

Not saying this doesn’t work but salt added to the alcohol always helps as well for those tough jobs. Be careful with the salt around your paint for scratches .. damages.. also fun fact best mixture to clean any bongs anyone may have/use thanks for the video 😊

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

Hey thanks for watching but confirming I didnt say add salt. If I did say it please give me a time stamp.

[@kevintombs6267]

@@TUXXREVIEWS correct I was giving some of my own at home remedy :) sorry for the confusion.

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

@@kevintombs6267 ok, thanks for the tip

[@jennerb7059]

I would use acetone in place of the rubbing alcohol. Let me ask why didn't you remove light and do this away from the car?

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

To remove light you have to remove bumper and thats very hard or atleast much more labor intensive.

[@jennerb7059]

@@TUXXREVIEWS Got it, I am going to have to remove some smoke effect that came in a rattle can and I'm about to remove that from my head lights and tail lights in my Camaro.

[@juggalo128]

So I should not tint my headlights got it

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

I would say no

Protective film is a pain in the ass to maintain! Once it start to deteriorate, it look soo ugly and gosh...the removal fees they charge....

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

Mine lasted about 3 years. It looked cool but I like the clear look for now.

[@Joshua-sc5xj]

What heat setting did you have this on?

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

Start with lowest and go up little by little - too hot is BAD !

[@Vanpham-xe3oj]

Your voice is giving my anxiety. Breathe bro. Good video though

[@isaiahwilliams7894]

LMAOOOOO

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

haha

[@TropicalThunder21]

Man when I first read this comment I was like damn that was mean, then I started to feel the same way 💀

[@Gabe-pr6ty]

Would these work on a 21 SE?

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

I believe the bulbs and size shape of the 21 c8 vette headlights are driifrent from the c7s. The tips for removal should still be the same.

[@You-All-Pokai]

where I can buy that heat gun?

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

My headlights are still looking sharp using the process outlined in this video. I may not understand your question, are you trying to remove tint or ? ?

[@xavierpisockyj6066]

U think it would would with a hair dryer

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

Yes - may take alittle longer but on hotest setting max fan yes

[@stevep1604]

Logo in upper left corner is really annoying!

[@TUXXREVIEWS]

Thank you for the feedback, is it the location or size? It's very annoying to people who try to download my content and republish as there own so they get the advertising revenue from my work. This has happened to me more times than you may think. My logo helps protect my content.

Bro you ever hear of goo be gone makes it where you can just wipe it off and no alcohol does not hurt paint just strips the wax off
