Hi All, first time poster here, trying to learn a new trick or two. I need help with the small project where I need to unto the tint on some glass of a shop window so that the viewer can more clearly see inside but I have no idea on where to start or how to do this. I've been told that I should use the dodge tool but I'm unsure the best way to do that with a window and reflections. I know there are videos online of an tinting a car window which is similar (but exactly opposite of what I'm attempting), but I haven't been able to find one that is the reverse of this. Can anyone tell me how to do this, increase the opacity of the window while still retaining the reflections and details?
Thanks!

I figured out how to untint the window. I duplicated the layer added the mask then applied a curve to the master channel. Hope that can help someone in the same situation.
