I know this one! I just got mine on my 3 tinted also last weekend. Looks way better! Anyways,
to clean them you HAVE TO MAKE SURE you use JUST soap and water.. not anything like Windex or anything that has amonia in it *pretty much any window-cleaner at every store! * So I have stuck to a damp wash cloth or soap and water... The amonia will make tint purple and make it peel off, so dont use anything like that! I know I spent alot of $$ on my windows, bet you did too, so I wouldn't try it! soap and water only!

okay, for cleaning window tints... there is a product called VROOM glass cleaner that I found at Target stores. My buddy used it to see if it works, and yes it does. There is no deformation due to this product and it only costs like 3 bucks for a bottle that is pretty big.

Invisiglass works really well...it doesnt have ammonia in it so it doesnt mess up your tint.

I wouldnt try it silverracer... just because there are soo many chemicals in those things!
and i know amonia is in arm and hammer stuff and that is what is directly supposed to make tint turn purple and bubble!

I would just use water and soap, water if anything , to be safe!

I use water only- a damp cloth. you really dont need anything else than that!
hope this helps..
