So I got my tint today....
and am very happy with it. I got %35 all around. The only thing is the guy said that the windows may cloud up a tad or bubble for maybe 3-5 days until it has a chance to dry. Is this everyone elses experience?

never had any cloudiness or bubbles, but it is recommended you not roll your windows down for at least 24 hours. I didn't for 2 days just to be safe... If you get bubbles, you installer sucks at his job(in which case you should make him fix it).

yes this is normal trust me and will go away soon, i have tinted all of my past cars and this has happend to all of them so dont worry about it, but wait about 3 days or untill the cloudness and bubbleing go away, the bubbles occur from the moisture on the inside of the tint trying to escape

Yep, like they said, its perfectly fine. Mine did it and it will go away. Dont roll your windows down for at least 2 days and try and park it in the sun as much as you can, it will dry faster.

When i got mine done they told me not to put it down the window or clean them for 5 days. As the other people said its normal for that to happen. Also just incase they did not tell when you do clean them make sure you use something without ammonia in it.

OK cool thanks for the replys. Good to hear that they will go away eventually, he prolly mentioned that fact but guess I was too excited to finally have tint that it went in one ear and out the other.[sm=drooldude.gif]

there's no rules for inspection. if you get pulled over and you're over the legal limit, you can get a ticket for it. friend had either 5 or 15 all around on his stealth. he got a ticket for that and his exhaust being too loud. this is in virginia. legal tint is 50 front windows, 35 rear. i got 35 all around.
