    Is it possible to remove window film?
    Yes, window film can be removed from your glass, but it cannot be reused. If you already have window film on your windows and you want to strip and replace the film you have; you will need a window scrapper and soapy water solution (breaks down the adhesive) and 'elbow grease'. The film will, after some time, come away from the glass. It is just a matter of cleaning the surface in preparation as though you were initially installing window film.
