hey, i just got my tint on today and it looks pretty good (20/35). Im waiting for it to dry (2-3 days without rolling down my windows) but im wondering bout those dots on my rear window near the top. Its pretty noticeable now, but will it be gone once it dries? Or what can i do now?

What exactly is wrong with the dots?? Are the dotted spots lighter then the rest of the back?
I just got my windows tinted today also............my dots looks fine heres a pic.

I had them put black vinyl over the dots and it looks very clean and very factory like. Click the link in my sig for pics

yea i got that problem also with my tints...the guy at the tint place said that he couldnt do anything about it...i think them dots are called "dot matrix"../

When I got my windows tinted, the dude that was going to tint them said sarcasticaly: "Oh Boy! Just like the grand prix". He did a pretty good job, but there are some areas on the side windows that look a little rough around the edges.

Thats why I get em' legal. So I get a lifetime warranty with the tint.

you talkin about dots or bubbles? the dots are supposed to be there. if they are bubbles- when the bubbles start to dry out, you can use a squeege and flatten them out.

I used to tint windows for a while. Sometimes we would leave it, (my personal preference), but some customers we told we could cut the tint from that section, some did it, i thought it looked terrible, especially when inside the car looking in the rear view mirror, you have a huge light shining in. Especially if you do 5% in the rear.

As far as the water bubbles, whoever said to take a knife and pop them should be shot!!! J/k, but seriously, LEAVE THEM ALONE!!! They will go away, they should have told you that leaving the car out in the sun, while rid of those alot quicker. If where you live the weather is cold and rainy all the time, expect to see those bubbles for at least 3 weeks. Just don't touch them, now after about that time, if something is still there, that means whoever tinted your window, got some poopy in the film, and needs to redo it

oh, and i wouldnt do the black vinyl, we did that on a bunch of mustangs, i personally think it looks terrible.

thanx for the input guys, i think i will wait it out right now, the weather here isnt too sunny right now so i guess ill wait a few weeks for it. im goin back to the place next weekend anyways because they have a lil razor scratch in my left front window and they said they would redo it if its still there after it dries. AND they scratched up my passenger side door mirror with a razor ALOT (the cover in which the side view mirror is hooked on to, or sometimes tweeters are put there) im gonna try and have them sand it down and repaint it cuz its their fault. any suggestions of specific questions i should ask them about my tint, concerning the bubbles in the back or anything at all?
