Default TINT QUESTION?

ON THE WINDOW THERE IS BLACK THAT FADES INTO LITTLE RAISED DOTS. I HAD MY TINT "PROFESSIONALLY" DONE AND THESES GUYS HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE DOTS AND MAKING THE TINT CONFORM AROUND THE DOTS SO IT MADE THE TINT LOOK STREAKY. HAS ANYONE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THAT AND HOW DID YOU SOLVE IT? THE TINTER CLAIMED THERE WAS NO WAY AROUND IT.[>:]

I was already to have mine tinted but the tinter told me I had 3 choices.

1. dont tint over the dots

2. Apply vinyl on the out side of window dots.

3. Sand the dots w/ 600 grit sand paper to lower the profile of dots & remove chemical on dots to make tinting stick. Extra $100.

I decided NOT to tint after seeing all the tint that didnt go over dots right, looks like ****.
