I just got mine done and notice little tiny air bubbles in a couple spots on some of the windows. Looks great from far away but when you walk up and inspect it you can see them. Is there such a thing as the perfect tint job? I noticed my neighbors looks the same and he got it done at a different shop. I'm very **** and am looking for perfection. But maybe it can't be done. Does all your guys tint have minor imperfections?

 

i dont think there should be any air bubbles at all.

 

it does take a couple days to fully cure. but yea there should be any bubbling, crinkling. sometimes it does happen though, dust particles get trapped between the window and the film and u cant do anything about it. unless if they work in a controlled and sealed environment.

 

Yeah no air bubble at all for me. You need to find a better tint shop.

 

So you guys are telling me that your tint jobs look almost good as a factory tinted window with no imperfections? The bubbles I'm talking about are the size of a ball point pen tip. Just a couple here and there

 

Air bubles should go away... I don't think there is such a thing as a perfect tint job though.... for doing it aftermarket atleast

 

it should be perfect. There are many tint shops with lifetime warranty that guarantee their work against pealing, bubbling and fading. That shows you that tint should be perfect when they are on your car. though normally tint takes up to a week to cure, so wait till after a week and see if there are any bubbles left

 

agreed. It should be perfect!

 

ok ill wait it out. I pushed on a couple small bubbles and it made them smaller but they didn't go away completely. Next I will try to puncture one with a small needle to see if that helps. If not I'm going to take it to another shop to see if they can do better.

 

Sit it in the sun it dries faster...........

 

Make sure you get one that guarantee it won't bubble, peel, turn purple. Ask for recommendation in the region forum for your area.

 

No bubbles or anything here. Got a perfect tint..atleast to my eyes

 

It should be perfect. Mine was perfect the second I got it back from the tint shot, even before curing.

 

First, don't start poking holes in it with a needle. Go back to the place where you had it done and have them look at it.

It's one of two things:
1. moisture that hasn't completely cured
2. trash/dirt under the film

There typically isn't such a thing as a perfect tint job. It's virtually impossible unless you are installing in a clean room wearing a bunny suit. You can get close to perfect but it's hard to avoid the tiny particles of dust floating through the air as you are carrying a piece of film to a car to install.

Check with the shop you had it done at. If it's an unusual amount of dirt/trash a good shop will honor it and replace the film.

One question I have is, what year is your car? Brand new cars are clean and more likely to be close to perfect than say a car that is 5 years old.

I'm in the 99th percentile when it comes to being picky so I feel your pain however, tint is for looking through not at :-) (that's a joke so don't get all affected)

Good luck!

 

I have very tiny bubble here and there, so far every car I checked up very close has some bubble.
