It's adhesive lines. You need a bit more slip in your solution. This happens when you squeegee over a area that is dry and stuck to the glass. This can also happen if you squeegee after heating the glass (after install) to get rid of imperfections, etc. I would make sure you get all the adhesive off the glass before your next attempt (Methyl Hydrate is what I use).

To keep your initial costs down, I would get a 36" roll of 20% and 5% (that size will work on 99% of the vehicles out there), and then a 24" roll of 35%. That would get you started and then you can adjust from there. Where in Canada are you from?

Please don't take it in for tint until it's fixed. There's nothing worse when you have a scheduled vehicle come in and 1 or more windows don't work...or the door won't open...or my favorite is when you have the key on for 30 seconds and the battery dies.

If you think the front doors are fun wait until you try the back glass of a Thunderbird. Did one...once...and never again lol.

You want to work from the middle out, pushing fingers into the corners as evenly as you can. Wrap your hard card in a paper towel and go over all edges after you are finished squeegeeing out the slip solution.

If it was my vehicle I would ask them to redo it all (which any serious tinting business should do without hesitation) and if you get the runaround I would be telling them to remove it and refund my money. If that's the quality of work they let out of their shop, I'd be going somewhere else.

LMFAO. If it's just "plastic that goes on glass" I would think it would be easy for someone like you to do a better job. Hell, I've seen some backyard tinters that have done a better job. I realize it does take time and a lot of tint hits the garbage can when you are learning, but the issues the OP has shown is 100% amateur and a total lack of attention to detail. I have over 15 years of tinting experience, owned my own company and still continue the same today as a side hustle that compliments my fulltime job in the oil patch. I could give a shit if you can tint faster lol. When you have to redo your shit work who's the dumb ass then lol?!

Man are you serious?! Do you even know how bloody stupid you sound?! I will say again, as I would imagine 99.9% of REAL tinters would agree, that was a pure 100% shit job that would NEVER leave my shop...and if you think otherwise you should not be in the industry. Perhaps a part time job of Walmart or McDs would be more up your alley. Pretty damn sad.

^^^VERY good advice!!!^^^

Definitely would not have left my shop. I'd give them a second chance to get it right, however, I will guess the second attempt won't be much better seeing how amateur the initial install was. Good luck! I hope you get it straightened out.
