hey, so I got my windows tinted back in january from a reputable place with very good quality tint that doesn't fade, peel, etc. (lifetime warranty included) but i've noticed my rear window, has what's called "dot matrix" and it kinda looks ugly. Its at the bottom of the rear windshield, and today i finally got off my lazy *** and went back over there to ask about it. They said that it is normal and they tried pushing it against the window more, but it didn't do anything. I was wondering if anyone has the same problem, if not then it really sucks that it happened to my car.

 

I have the same problem, get used to it or have someone take another shot at it.. but its unlikely it'll be fixed...

 

I had a guy thats been tinting for 14+ years do mine, same thing happened, I've learned to make my peace with it and not let it bother me

 

i have dots without having tint..thought it was just the way rear windows are made..doesn't bother me..can only see it at an angle...lots of cars have it..maybe all, who knows.

 

tint wont stick to those dots, but i have seen one car where they could get the tint to stick, not sure how they did it. all my cars have had the dots and the tint looks weird. thats one of the reasons i wont tint my car.

 

hahaha yea we're talking about the tint not sticking to it and bubbling inbetween them...

 

no dots on my tint. I had a Saturn before. It didn't have tint, but in certain lighting I could see a dot pattern all over the window.

 

um.. there should be not on the tint though it should be on the window itself...

 

yup I noticed that also after I got tint. Doesnt bother me because I dont look at the rear window

 

i just got my front windows tinted and had a row of dots on the top. Parked my car in the direct sunlight for a day or two and the dots went away. I guess the heat shrinked them

 

ok i tint also some but yea the little bubbles at the bottom are normal the only way you could do that and not have bubbles is to take the window off or take 5 hours to do the rear window just aslong as its not to much of a pain, but mine has some to , i live with it.

 

are u talking about the same bubbles? im not talking about bubbles in the tint, just at the bottom, i don't know how to explain it, whatever. im over it...

 

The glass has black bubbles that come factory on I believe all lancers. I'm not sure what they're for but they are raised up from the glass and are tough to get the tint to fill in around.

 

im refering to what he is^. but bottom line its hard to do.

 

Can't those dots be scraped off before tinting with a blade?
