PROBLEMS WITH TINT?????

Just got 35% tint all the around on my CL-S...after a few days, went back to have them get the bubbles out and shit like that....after all was said and done, noticed an awful lot of bubbling at time of my rear window.....maybe something to do with the rear defroster or is it a shitty tint job..
anyone with this problem or something similar???
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!

I live in south Jersey..place called Auto Magic....good reputation and also they offer a lifetime warranty on the tint.
I am curious to see if people have had the same problem with their back windows.
Is there anything i can do to fix this??
Is this possibly due to the fact that we have had 90+ degree sunshine all week since i had it done???
what do i do?

The tint will bubble on the top dotted portion, in most cases. Some people, however, have places that do tint where it doesn't bubble...but too late for me...

You have to let it sit for a while to dry out! A week should have been alright, but with our matrix dots...it might take a little longer. Just sit tight...as long as they will fix it later, you might as well wait and see what happens.

Yeah, you might just have to wait a bit for the bubbles to come out. I had the metallic done which is usually harder to do a perfect job on and I only had one bubble on my passwnger window which went away after about 2 weeks with no residue leftover. I was glad it worked out b/c I'm not sure how easy it is to get the tint off of the defroster lines without hurting them.
