Sorry to steal your thread.
But, I have a quick question about window tinting..
So, my co-worker got his BMW 5 series tinted (all 5 windows, except windshield). After the job, I saw that the film wasn't "smoothly" applied. It looks like there were air bubbles or water streaks still under the tint.
The guy who did it, says it was normal and should go away in a couple days after the film cures.
Is this a normal thing that happens when tinting?
I'm bout to get it done by the same guy for $200. I live in CA, so is 35% all around good and legal?

I'm from NorCal, so yeah thanks tho..
then what is the legal tint % for the front? Co-worker said 35% is no problem.
And... Air bubbles and water streaks are definitely not a normal thing? I'll check my co-workers car tomorrow and see if they are still there. If so, I'll probably not get it done by that guy.
