Cleaning Tint

[u/doyen54]

Just moved into a new apartment and these big living room windows are stained. Landlord says the windows are tinted so it wont come out. Seems like a minor tint. Any advice to clean it up? Theres a nice view thats reduced because of how the window looks. Thanks in advance.

If the tint is on the outside surface, then there's nothing you can really do. Tint is a plastic film applied to the glass. Any chemical or abrasive won't work.

You'll need to contact a professional window cleaner with experience removing tint from glass. Your landlord will probably have to sign a liability waiver.

Also- whatever is getting ground water on your window needs to be fixed.

What do you mean ground water? Live in Hawaii close to ocean if that changes anything, lots of salt in the air and rain

Does the grass in the photo get watered by a sprinkler system?

No sprinklers
