Tint Pulling At Lower Driver's Side

I was wondering if there was any way once the tint has started peeling, to somehow get it back on the window. Here is the situation:

I have a 350Z and the windows automatically come up and down when the door is open and shut. I had to go back a 2nd time for them to re-tint again because they didn't account for my windows automatically pulling up. Well it has been about 4 days since the tint, I crack my window this morning and a little bit below the window seal, you can hear it pulling. I pull the seal up a little bit and see where it is starting to pull...again. Is there anyway I can stop this process from pulling up anymore(above the window seal). I have disabled the auto up/down window feature on the driver's side since the 2nd tint. The tint currently is slightly peeling on the bottom right part of the driver's window just below the window seal.

Could I pull off the door panel, cut the place where it is peeling, and use a dryer it to make sure it is dry?

:nope that's probably the worse thing you could do because once you mess with the tint then there is no way you can take it back to that place to have them fix it. I would take it to another place who knows what they are doing.

What if I just tape or glue something to the peeling part, I mean it is below the window seal, I am just worried about it over time pulling up more and more. I would LOVE to go back to the place where they screwed it up 2x but I rather not

What the guys are saying is they didn't install the film low enough to clear the door seal. Some installers remove the door panel for easy access, other do not. I never did.

Take it back, and suggest they install the film below the seal line to keep you from having to come back.

Either that or take it to someone who does install it right.

      Low angle haze

      I've never been asked for any kind of cert. Of course I probably sound like your average salty installer that's had enough of everyone's crap.

      I've been ordering here, filmnow.com. Shipping to CO is pretty quick. I usually call to get a 60" cut down to 38/22 rather than just ordering online.

      I reached out to global, info@global email. Do they have any sales requirements, or certification requirements? We'll see how long it takes for them to reply. Or does someone have a local rep near Denver?

      Best place to learn window tint ppf

      Ppf is going to be the easiest for you to transition to coming from detail and being familiar with car body shapes. Tinting can be alot more challenging to get right in a detail shop, even for an experienced installer. Taking the class from Xpel would probably benefit you in your position because it would (1) give you brand support for ongoing install questions. (2)becoming a dealer would probably be easier after having gone through their training and beginning a professional relationship. (3) likely give you access to a protected product area. Ask first to make sure that access will granted. (4) you would most likely be added to their list of installers on their website if you are accepted as a dealer. For someone just starting out the dealer/marketing support would be helpful, even if you pay a few dollars extra as compared to taking a random class and whinging it. Once you've been at it for a few years any solid brand/product will do, however, some prefer the dealer model for the obvious benefits and build their buisness around it. You'll find what works for you after you've been at it for a few years. Good luck and post any install questions you might have once you get started. This is a really good/helpful community here.

      Low angle haze

      I've got the ceramic 70 in a heat/light cube with the ceramic 30, HP30 and clear glass. That stuff is amazing, especially when you can see it side by side. I suspect it's two layers of ceramic base films laminated together to meter at 70vlt. I hope they never change it. Thanks @Bham. Believe it or not I really enjoy educating the customers to find out what they really need and not try to oversell just to turn a buck. Most of my new clients come from older referrals and when they find me I keep em for years. For sure more people are catching on to the product name and I've yet to have a piece of HP or the ceramic fail that wasn't my own fault. It's nice to know I'm not paying for a bunch of marketing collateral and a butt kissing salesman to travel around pass out tshirts and coffee cups that's added into the cost of my roll stock.
