Question About to tint my windows, how do I get the Rain-X off?

I'm about to tint the windows on my car but I'm concerned about something. About a month ago I applied a coat of Rain-X Anti Fog to the interior of my windows. I'm concerned that the Rain-X will cause the tint not to stick or not to stick for very long. Any sure fired to remove the Rain-X?

hm... not sure about removing rain x, cause that stuff is made to stay... Id say just use any normal cleaner and give it a shot... Did you apply that to all your windows?

thats the thing with rain-x, once you put it on, it stays there.

i'm sure windex should do the job just fine

easy off oven cleaner, windex won't make a dent in it. You can also use paint thinner
