I put some on my black truck and sprayed their glossifier on over it and it lasted for more than a year. The glossifier acts as a uv protectant.

I put new General Grabber 295 75 16 Tires on my FX4 Lariat. I love these tires. They look great and have low road noise. I looked at a lot of different tires, and went with the GRABBERS. WalMart had the best price and GENERAL has a $70 rebate going on. So I scored. And mama likes them to.

Quick tip on removing window tint. Black plastic trash bag, spray bottle of water and a warm sunny day. Cut the bad a little bigger than the window, spray the inside of the window with the water, put the bag on the tint with the water on the window still. leave in the sun to dry ( about 20 to 30 minutes ) then pull the trash bag off slowly and the tint will come off with it. Look it up on youtube. Works great. These tint guys are ripping you off when they charge you to remove it. TRUST ME.

So how is it ripping you off when they have to spend time doing it? It is not something that magically happens with the snap of the fingers.
Sure, if you want to do it the way you say it costs less than $5 and an hours worth of your time. Well that time is money for a window tinter, and they will charge you for it. Just like any other service. What does a window tinter do on a cloudy day, or in the winter? The have to buy equipment to do it with, and again, that costs money.
Mind if I ask what you do for a living? Whatever it is, your ripping people off because it is cheaper to do it yourself. You should do it for free.
Heck, if you want, you can come to my house and take the tint off my trucks windows for me and i will pay you nothing to do it. TRUST ME.

Guys the steam and 5 minutes I had it off both side windows. Back sliding glass took 5 more minutes. Then between 5 and 10 minutes to clean the small amount of glue off the windows. And give them a good cleaning.
Only way I can think of it being any easier than that. Watch someone else do it for me.

Sounds like 'SOMEBODY" is a window tinter. And what I do for a living, you couldn't do, "TRUST ME". Go ahead and spend an extra $50 on something that will cost you .35 cents. So, if you like throwing away money, You're dumber than your response. You're probably voting for Hillary also. Why do we post things to help people DIY??? Just take it to the dealer Mr. Money bags.

Glad that worked for ya! Yeah I was happy when I asked the pro and found out how easy it was for me to do on my own. I probably won't be changing my truck anytime soon but I have the knowledge for if/when the time comes!

Posting a DIY is fine, I have no problem with that, and your way probably works (never tried it myself, as I said before, I used a heat gun to take mine off). And no I am not a window tinter, but I do understand how the world works. If you don't /can't/won't do it yourself, you have to pay someone to do it. Expecting them to do it for free is just stupid and ignorant.
As for the rest of your response, how do you know I can't do what you do for a living? You apparently can't even brag correctly, at least say what it is you do that is so great and amazing that nobody else can do.
So for a stream of water containing cleansing agents that is applied to a body part or cavity for hygienic or therapeutic purposes and the container it is in, you seem to fail pretty hard.
