Removing Window Tint?

I need to get the current tint off of my truck, after two years it's shrinking and peeling off the windows.

Whats the easiest way? I've heard spraying down the window with a water/ammonia mix, and taping it shut with a black trashbag on the inside?

Any quick easy ways?

spray the window with windex, spray a plastic trash bag with windex also. stick it to the window and let it sit for a little while in the sun. slowly peel it off when it feels like the glue is melting. this method works great for window with the defrost strips.

trust me on this. i used to help at the tint shop. the guy i helped has been doin this stuff for 30 years. they dont call him tintmaster for nothing.
