Thanks, am taking it back today.[sm=smiley6.gif] FRUSTRATING because I am having to take off work to do all this.
I am going to take it to anothe tinter in town and see what he says
he can do and back up with a guarantee before I take it back to the original shop.

The tinting job cost $169 lifetime warranty. They never mentioned the trouble with the tint sticking to the
black dots.

What are the black dots for anyway? Do they have anything to do with defrost?

Will post pictures and update.

i woud of done it for 60 bucks and you bring the paper or 110 and i bring everything. those dots shoudnt be a problem hes a bad tinter. you shoudnt have to sand down the dots at all. all you have to do is put up the tint dry dont wet that **** or that area and it will stick. they dont know what the hell there doing tryin to put elmers on that it woud look horrible. dont be satisfied until its perfect.

when i did my last car they guy told me to wait about two days to let every thing start drying and then go back with my fingers and push it down around the dotts worked perfectly.

btw all i paid was for the tint so i couldn't complain about doign that.
