Default Window Tint

I got my jeep tinted and the back window where the defrost wires the tint is raised where the wires are and you can see the "air bubbles" is it possible to get the tint perfectly flat where you can't see air bubbles between the tint and defrost wire? Should I take it back and get retinted? I paid for a good job and its my baby I WANT IT PERFECT!!!!

It's difficult to tint in this area because of the defrost wires. Some bubbles should go away. I would give it some time befor taking it back.

So just wait a little bit? Then what? Try and press as much as I can with a credit card?

No. Don't touch it. If it doesn't go away in a couple weeks, then take it back.

As already stated I would give it a few days then if it doesn't clear up you can bring it back. I wouldn't lay a finger on it and risk making it worse.

I had my Jeep tinted and the first 2 days I was nervous and pissed because of all the little bubbles and it didn't look right. Give it 3 or 4 days and leave it be! It will come out fine, especially if you paid for a good one. Lol I paid $50 for all my windows and looks great!

Ok thank y'all. Sorry didn't mean to say the credit card thing twice my phone said failed to send so tried again and they both went through. I'll just wait a week or so thanks again. I just want it to be perfect. I'm sure most all can understand.
