Yea I had them everytime I got something tinted. Mine ususally went away in less than a week though. The people told me tint has really tiny pores in it and the air will eventually seep through. I don't know if thats true but mine went away
Me too, i got my windows tint last friday at this place callled WinnersTint from where I live (MD).I told them to tint over the third break light but since they don't have the tools to do it, they told me to go to audio shop and get the rear deck remove for $50.I was like theres no way I could pay $50 just to remove that sht.They said they try do there best.It came out pretty nice except it has bubbles about a size of a bean .They said those bubbles are gonna go away in few days (5 days ).I'll give it a few more days,if they won't go away i'd prolly remove the deck myself and bring it back and get it fix,but overall i'm pretty happy.I have lifetime warranty btw.. just incase.

You can clean the outside with anything you want, but they say use anything that doesn't contain ammonia for the inside. Just dont use anything strong. More elbow grease less cleaner

I know the tint shops warranty for bubbles and what not, but do they warranty if the installer scratched the tint. I just got mine redone today and when I got home and looked at it, there are alot of scratches in the tint. Not ones that can be removed with window cleaner, but scratches that have gone threw the tint. They are noticeable if I look at them. Will they warranty that? Does anyone have scrathces in there tint from the installer?

ok, heres my other question. The place I got my tint at has 3 shops in houston. If I got it done at one shop, can I take it back to another shop to have them do it over if they messed it up? The shop I went to is way too far from my house.
did you make sure it came with a life time warranty? i got my tint by a guy who has been tinting cars for over 20 years. he does it at his house and he is the only one who does it, it took me two weeks to get an appointment! no bubbles or anything, and the back window is a really good job. its even all the way around those black dot things and he didn't cut around the third brake light.

When I went to get the 2 front windows redone, I told the guy I wanted 5%, and he told me no papers and I had to pay cash, so I was like ok. Well when I left, the girl who rang me up gave me a reciet that said lifetime warranty, so I am going back on monday. It isnt a big deal about the scratches, but it is so noticeable and paying $65 to get it redone, I want my **** to look nice.
