Go to a hardware store and ask for a "razor blade scraper". It will cost you $1-$5. That will hold the razor in place so you don't have to hold it with your fingers. Don't forget to buy the blades if it doesn't come with any.
Also, be careful when removing the tint from the back window. Your defroster is what those lines are that goes across the window. If you cut any of those lines, you might need to get the entire defroster replaced. The only way to do that is by replacing the back window which is EXPENSIVE!!!
Good luck.

PLEASE DON"T have it professionally done.but if you must do iy yourself go to an auto body supply store and get a gallon of laquer thinner(tell them you want the cheap stuff or "wash thinner" and a LOT of rags.You will also need a few single edge razor blades.Remove your door panels and peel the tint off with a razor blade now take a rag and wet it with thinner then wipe the glue on the window to soften it.Now take a razor blade and scrape as much of the glue off as you can then take your rag and wet it again and clean up the left over residue.Once you think you have all the glue off clean the glass with some wndex.I assure you there will still be some glue there so take a clean rag wet it with the thinner and spot clean the left overs,now clean with windex again.THis job is a huge mess and labor intensive so think twice before getting into it.Hopefully by the time you do all the side glass you'll have the hang enough to be very careful when you do the back and windsheild not to drip thinner all over the place.Also you'll wana wear some heavy duty latex gloves...GOOD LUCK

Try using a new straight razor blade and a mild solution like diluted baby shampoo. Just slice a line through the tint and saturate with solution, the glue and tint will come off with ease. Like melted butter!

a utility razor blade and a hair drier to warm the tint,then use rubbing alcohol to remove the remaining glue
be careful on the back window,if you cut or scrap any of those little lines your rear window defroster will not work

Autozone has the removal kit-- it is liquid and it makes it easier to remove the tint... But you might still need the blade as well...

A 4" scraper, and about 30 minutes of work.
