Default tint removal tips?

I think this car was installed with some cheap tint, The tint is horrible on this car. I was thinking about removing it and having it retiniyrf so I can see out the windows.

I tried to scrape some of it, and its just flaking off, and not very easily. Anyone have any tips.
