My hatch has it on there and it's bubbling and hard to see out of it in the rear view. Is there an easy way to get that junk off? I can peel some off by hand but now I am at the point thats not working well. I have an event in 2 weeks and would like to have it off. Thanks for the help

The paint shop ended up peeling some of the film off the door windows on our SVO when it was getting painted (it was okay, as the tint was crap anyway). I finished it, but there was the film still on the window. Soapy water, and Windex barely touched the stuff. I ended up using carburetor cleaner (actually, Castrol Metal Parts Cleaner, but it smells the same). I finished up polishing the windows with brass wool. I had all the windows out to fix other things, so I just laid them on the kitchen counter and went to work.
