Tinting
Got my tinting done last week. Before I left there were quite a bit of bubbles in it, was told they would disappear. Most did. But week later after I wash the car I notice several bubbles (small) and dirt particles trapped. Is this acceptable? Should I even expect the tinting to be perfect?

um 
furthermore, the tint should be done 99.999% perfectly, if there are scratches, bubbles etc make them rip it off and re-tint it. Don't accept any BS that "it'll dissapear over time".
I've made my Acura dealer re tint my windows 3 times now in 1 year 4 months due to scratches from felt they installed, bubbles etc.
You paid for it, it should be damn near perfect and to your satisfaction....this is a no brainer?

Just got back, got the two windows retinted that had two pretty large bubbles (1/2 cm). They refused to do the others which had couple of dirt underneath. The guys said "it's a hand job you have to expect a couple of dust particles on each window. What else can I do, I think i'll just have to live with it. I'll post some pics soon but I think it will be hard to capture.

You'll catch a lot of crap if you post pics of a dirty car. I've seen one or two guys practically get cruxified. LOL.
I actually agree with the tinter. It's very, very hard to eliminate ALL dust paricles. Rear window is worst. However, air and/or water bubbles shoudn't be there at all.
That said, I couldn't find a single blemish in mine.

LOL...i know..it'll be washed in a couple of days...
the tint guy cleaned the windows and lights with invisible glass and there is no dirt, just like a bubble or two which will settle down...other than that its nice...he tinted my top brakelight as well...
