Default Airblu 80 not good

I had Airblu 80 windshield tinted two weeks ago. It came out not too good. The drive during the day were ok but not as clear as i thought. But night time driving totally different story. From every street light and every tail light or front light look blurry. Not good at all. And i had it done from a very good tint shop here LV. I had them reinstalled second time three days ago(no charge). They admitted there was a bad patch of film from LLumar. My side window Llumar CTX15 look clearer than Airblu 80 I'm going to bring it in the third time next Monday night. See what they can do about it. Anyone try 3M Crystalline ?

Don't know what to tell you. I have air 80 on everything including the windshield and my stuff is clear. Got it installed 4-5 months ago.

I have the air blue 80 clear on my front windshield and have not had any issues. Been installed for about a year and a half now. Nothing but good things to say about it

give 3M Crystalline a try. I have seen them on my friend's front windshield and it is very clear.

Yea, i'm going back tomorrow night let them see how bad it is at night. I might get refund or give 3M crystalline a try. Would that be problem taking tint off a few time from windshield?
I thought my eye sight were getting bad. But i didn't see that blurry on my other car without windshield tint(4 runner) So it has to be the Llumar airblu 80. Will update tomorrow . Hope for the best.
