Tint Stains

Hey guys, I just noticed today that after I got my tints, I hadn't washed my car for a good month and let the soap water dry on it. It left a stain on it and I was wondering if you guys knew any way I can get rid of it. And before someone gives me one of these I will post up some pics as soon as I get my camera back from my brother.

Try invisible glass which is also safe on the tints.

+1 Also, it's not on the tint if it's on the outside of the window, it's on the glass. Should be easy enough to get it off. Assuming it's on the glass, try Stoner's, then if that doesn't work, vinegar and water, then if that doesn't work, clay, then if that doesn't work, 1Z Glas Polish.
