Much like, or similar to window tint, once a cling loses it’s ability to stick, it’s difficult to regain it. You can try using a mild detergent and water on your cling to renew its life. If that fails, then it is time for a new one.
Good luck

I never could get the clingy shade to stay on in the first place so I threw it away.

The instructions that came with mine mentionned that in order for it to regain it's static "clinginess" you had to put it in the dryer for a few minutes. (can't remember how long).
It's static electricity, of course it can be re-used!

Mid America does, and has been selling it for well over 20 yrs. And it works. OP, this may sound odd, but I'd suggest gently washing it with very light soap, then let it dry.
