Window Tint and Rear Window Defroster

I had to have the tint redone (after a week) on the back glass of my 2011 E550 due to a wrinkle. I didn't watch the job, but did see for a second the guy having to pull the old tint off. My question is, can that pull some of the orange line off the glass for the rear defroster??? I'm missing about an inch of the orange line off the first line at the bottom of the glass, left of center. Chaps my azz!!!

Tint guy says ya it can happen when peeling off old tint, but not very often. Most people would not even notice it. We ALL have that one darn thing that chaps our azz, just because it's there. I guess I have mine now and it feels better to type it out!!!!

I'm planning in getting my tint done when it warms up. I was told never to put tint on your windows while its cold.

Google, "Rear window defogger repair", and you'll find several Do-it-Yourself repair products and step-by-step instructions. No experience with any of the products. Good luck!
