Rear defroster replacement.

I had my tint done a while back, and I noticed that I have patches of the orange window defroster gone. It is like when they scapped my old tint off, they took some of the orange lines(defrosters) with it. Now it looks like crap, since there is 3 big blotches of missing orange in the rear window. If I had it all scrapped off, would they still work at all? Is there a way to get it fixed?

There are defroster repair kits available that contain the correct type of "paint" to replace missing lines, your local auto parts store should have it.

Basically, you'll just run two pieces of masking tape down either side of where the line used to be and fill the gap with the special paint from the repair kit. When the paint has dried, remove the tape and clean up any little mistakes or problems.
