Tint Gone Bad? How long to give bubbles

[vh5150]

I recently got my front windows tinted and overall it was not a good experience due to poor communication. To add, there are a good amount of bubbles. This is my first tint, and I know this is somewhat common after a tint but how long should it take for them to go away? It has been about 4 days.

It can sometimes take a while. Especially in cooler weather. Try parking outside in the direct sun for a few days to see if the heat will dry them out. If that doesn't work, you need to go back and see if the installer can do anything. I've had a couple of stubborn bubbles over the years on some of my windows, and the installer was able to use a heat gun to GENTLY work them out. You don't want to use direct heat for too long or you'll burn the tint.

Many thanks. Really appreciate the help. Weather has been somewhat cool here and due to where I work the car doesnt get a ton of direct sunlight during the week.

That's not a bad thing... in my parts the sun literally eats everything and I would love to have covered parking at both work and home.

Hope your tint sorts itself out. In case you weren't aware, things fixing themselves is a Jeep thing. ?
