I have windows/windshield tinted 10 days ago, I noticed tiny bubbles on windows here and there . Some seems air bubbles but some looks like contaminated/dirt bubbles :.
I will take it back to the shop for couple thumb size areas full of tiny bubbles.
I'd like to know am I too picky about single air bubbles here and there or is it common tinting issue which I have to live with?

If they did it right there should be no bubbles.

I didn't have any in mine but have read a number of articles saying it is common and expected. Wait a few weeks and see if they cure/evaporate. If not, then contact your installer. Of course it wouldn't hurt to give them a call now just to make sure.

Edit: I guess I should have specified water bubbles. Air bubbles may not go away with curing. Here is a link with some information. https://www.autosupershield.com/blog...-tint-bubbles/

I have to say they did a lousy job, just drop off the car to have entire right side and back re-do.
Hopefully they do it right this time. Hassle

How cold is weather in your area? Bubbles will go away after 2weeks if you are in colder areas. Did you make sure you don't open your windows for 4-5 days after install?

My tint guys always do an exceptional job but they always make me come back 2 weeks afterwards to get even the tiniest bubble out because they're expected.

On a windshield I wouldn't want any at all. Bring it back in 2 weeks after it has a little time to heal/cure/dry out and have them make it perfect.

I kept windows close for 1 week, and I'm in Bay Area.
He agreed to replace them right away After I showed issues to him.

You can expect to see bubble like distortions after installation. These usually go away when the vehicle is left in the hot sun after the glue dries up.

Looks like something different for you though.

Yep, no more bubbles on new installation.

Window tint in Florida? Do you guys do your sides plus the front windshield plus the back read trunk window? How dark can I go in Florida? Pics would be Awsome! Thank you. Just want to make sure I am asking the right questions when going to tint place and getting the right product.
