It could be your plotter needs a new blade or Teflon strip.  If you aren't getting a nice clean cut when plotting, sometimes weeding the film will pull a bit of adhesive away from the edge of the pieces left on the backing paper.

Nothing

Tired, but it came out great.

it can be very frustrating, especially if you are the high strung type and tend to get pissed off about mistakes. Speed will come with time and practice, focus more on routine and speed will follow naturally without being in a hurry or trying to be fast.
 

I didn't have any issues expect for matching the color. I ended up using a Global 70% ceramic. It has a slight brassy twing and looked appropriate afterwards. I've noticed multiple glass package colors from the factory.

Anyone work on one and have any problems with it? Looks easy to tint just wondering if there are any precautions noted on these things. Thanks in advance!
One thing to note is the reflective glass on all sides and rear. 

Looks pretty smooth. This new model does have front quarter windows however they are factory tinted like the rear. The front roll ups have a black edge on both sides. Should make for a pretty easy window film install.
 

Just slow down and think. 

Horrible install.
 
*If* it were weld splatter.... then the side windows should be perfect. Given they aren't even close... bad install.

Welcome to the forum. I split your question of into its own thread.
 
From an installer viewpoint, a % of the price is a % of the price. Plus ceramic is usually more difficult to install, so why not pay him/her that few bucks more? 
 
From an owner viewpoint, you want to keep your costs as low as possible, and that upsell is some nice gravy.
 
If you are happy with your installer (and that's rare) it might be in your interest to cut him/her in on the upgrade IMHO.

I hate removing film, always rips my knuckles up.  I always were gloves (motocross ones work nice) but even then it can still cause blisters.  Today I tried something new and sprayed the areas that get ripped up with New Skin, a spray on liquid bandage.  Just removed a full front on a 17 Macan and no blisters!  Not saying it was the difference in my hands coming out undamaged, but I will certainly use it for future removals.

You definitely should not be using a needle to pop water bubbles, this will only create a permanent defect that will most likely haunt you and the customer down the road.

Does well. He already took a hit. Saved the shield!

Take it back man bring some donuts or something, they’re losing money redoing windows but need to know if they care.  they could have much pickier customers. 

Yea .it's tint and dirt.
I can tell it still needs to dry.
The world isn't going to stop cause of it. 
Your telling me that your work is perfect? Or you don't get some dirt .
Sure there's more then we like but that's the dirt of it...
 

It looks like it was just done and needs to dry as well . might be a little dirty . just enjoy it . It's just a 300 .
It's not peeling . Don't bring it back cause these guy say it needs to be . That it wouldn't leave ther shop like that come on guys. Just let it go . don't sweet the small stuff. If you can't live with a little speckled tint then  I would love to see how clean it is . in other places. There is no perfect tint job .!! So why try to find it . enjoy the heat protection the uv block and the light block and the dirt too.  It's just tint that's it . tint . 

Another fun one.  Not bad at all really.
