Personally never seen just a air bubble in window tint besides a finger at the edge of the film or adhesive failure on old tint.  Generally it is either a water bubble at the beginning or has a piece of dirt/debris that is pushing the film up.  You should be able to push on it lightly and see if there is liquid in it.

That is what it looks to me es like water pockets but their like ghost looking. you can only see them when direct outside light hits it. but I can't push them out with my squeegee.

The real faint ones in photos 3/4 look like water bubbles...the darker grayer colored ones.  The brighter silver looking ones in all the photos are dirt/hair that will not come out.

So the water bubbles will just dry with time? but the other ones will not?

Yes, water bubbles will go away...if cold weather could take up to a month.  The rest have dirt or debris in them which is pushing the film away from the glass creating the bubble.

Thank you very much.
