Tint Scratching even WITH MOLESKIN!
This post should really only apply to people who got scratched tints and then re-tinted after applying moleskin. In retrospect, I should have got the car re-tinted and then added the moleskin.
When my original scratched tints were removed I believe some of the glue dripped into the moleskin. This hardened and scratched my new tint. I removed it but there's a huge scratch on the driver window (which I'll just live with). No other windows showing anything yet. I swiped the moleskin on all 4 doors and didn't find any other rough spots

I haven't actually been having problems with the glue from the moleskin. I believe it is the old glue that dripped into the moleskin from removing my old scratched tint. All I've been able to do is try to clean it out. Only 1-2 other new scratches

I have the moleskin and 2 of my windows have still been scratched with the moleskin. Not as badly, by anymeans. However, it is still annoying. I got 1 of the two replaced for free because originally I only noticed one of the 2 windows scratching. Then after that repair I noticed another one scratching. i think in my case some sand is getting stuck in the moleskin due to dirty construction areas by where I live. I can't keep worrying about scratching, so I'm living with the 1 scratch I've got now. It is only noticeable on the inside of the the car so it isn't an issue yet. Anyway, I'm mumbling... best of luck.
