No that's what surprises me about this they r good my buddy and his wife both had their vehicles done here and they turned out fine. I guess I'm just unlucky and they r really tiny but I'm like the rest of everybody on here and am very ocd about my truck and can find the smallest imperfections it doesn't look like the DIY ones where u can clearly see the sir bubbles in the rear windows. But overall I hope a different guy does it this time cause the way he cut it is bugging the crap outa me too.

My buddy that has his done just texted me and said it is just the water they use and should dry away so ill prolly give it till Monday again

that sucks but it might be nothing.
i just got mine back (35/20) and i was talking to the guys for a while.
mine is real wet a streaky i was pissed at first, but the guys
said it needs to dry in the sun. and i can't roll the windows down for
4 days. no cleaning for 2 weeks what am i going to do.

i wouldn't touch anything w/ a credit card leave it 2 the pros imo.

Yea they said no rolling windows down for at least 3 days and no washing for 30 so I'm guessing its just water that needs to dry

Edit 00 where's the pics?

You cant roll the windows down for 3 days.. What!!!! Your fine after a day of sitting trust me I did my tint myself and I finished it at 7pm had my windows down at 11am the next day and as far as the litte air bubbles it does need to sit for a little bit mine what the same way I was pissed about it then the next day I came out and they were gone
