C4 rear window
My rear window has a clear film that is coming loose. Where it is no longer there it is hazy. Can anyone tell me what to use to remove the haze?Also can anyone tell me how to remove the rest of the film which is still intact.

Ugh. Just had to remove the peeling tint on mine a few weeks ago. Get a good razor blade scraper and at least a dozen blades. Then open up the elbow grease and git r dun. Sprayed goo gone and Windex on it after the film was off to get all the residue off. Planning on getting the whole thing UV ceramic tinted once my project list dies down some

Hello -
I had a tint shop remove the film/glue from the rear window in my 96 Corvette. The orange lines remain - is the defrost wiring in the glass or were there wires glued to the glass?
If the wires are not inside the glass and are now gone, is there a replacement kit available for the wires?
Thank you -
Dave

Aren't there 2 connectors in the wires? Haven't looked myself for a decade. But if there are you could test if the wires are still good with a multimeter. Check continuity between the 2 connectors.
