Default Quick Tint Help PLZ!

I had tinting done at my local tinting place and they tinted the rear window only 90% and left a area with the little black dots. I would like to know what those black dots are and if they could remove them and make the tinting actually look good not like a half done job. A quick respone would be Very appreciated!

I scraped mine off and tinted over the area ... Most shops won't take the time to do it ...

the guy who tinted my windows said they were porcelain and they were made into the window so they couldnt take them off. Is it like a decal? If not did it come off clean?

Thanks!

I have never tinted over those dots. The guy who trained me on it said there was a few diffrent options...one was to leave it alone. another was to scrape them off which i didnt like that idea. another was to sand that spot down with fine sand paper which would be 2000 grit or better and paint it black. He also said you could actually sand them off. but i dunno what the tint would look like over it.

Any autoparts store should have it, I know for a fact that Carquest carries it.

You can look for a paint shop and they should have it also, I know down here we have a Finish Masters that sell Dupont so i would suggest that.
