tints result

is this normal? got it done like 3 weeks ago... this is my front left window... tinter tried to squeeze it down and it goes away but after squeeze out, it comes back so basically, it is not a scratch... i got similar one on my front right window too (prob 3 or 4 of them all together) but very very thin... anyone get these before after tinting their windows?? Is it still wet?

i live in Maine and it hasn't been very hot here, the climate... I was told it would day 60 days for the film to 100% cure...

I got my front right window done again last tuesday since there was a hairline scratch in the middle... it looks better now but then it got those thin lines (not scratches) so i'm waiting to let it heal first...

If the shop does not clean your windows properly prior to putting the film, dust get's stuck and will never go away. I had to have both my front windows redone 1 week after as there was lots of dust. Then as they finished doing it a second time the tinter took a look and had to redo my driver side again because he said that he didn't want me to come back in another week.

Ensure that you really get a lifetime warranty and use when necessary.

That actually happen to me once , because one of my idiot friends opened the window and turn the a/c + defroster on the first day... though again that may not be the case. Hopefully the person who did you tint remove the window from your doors rather than measuring it from out the window.

THIS IS NOT NORMAL.......

If you have a good tinter, there is no dust under the film... and if there is some, it's not like the car from eclipsin420.

Have tinted my windows 3 weeks ago, and i didnt have that much bubbles.
Day one you have some bubbles but they will disapear.... my windows are bubble and dust free....
