Tint

I am taking my car to the shop to retint all my windows.
The previous shop did a shitty work, I went there 3 times and I still have small bubbles and dirt and dust trapped under the tint...
Can someone tell me if they retinted back window?
I am worried about the defroster.
The guy told me that he is in business 20 years and he done this before but there is always a risk...

That's what I've always been told as well. I've had the back tint stripped twice (by two different people) and there has never been a problem. Good luck to you.

As long as they use steamer to take off the back window then the defroster will be fine. BTW, im a tinter so i know this for sure. Just so you kow, to take off a tint on a back window takes alot of time and work. The shop that i work at charges 50 bucks an hr to do it and the most is 2 hrs. In addition to that, you also have to pay to retint it.

Thanks for the info.
I actually called the Llumar Company and told them about my situation.
The tint shop that did the installation before was their authorized dealer so they agreed to
pay for the retint. Hope this time everything will be Ok.
