OH WOW oops, i forgot to hit the quote button. Oh well.

it should still be visible, its just the problem is that the dot matrix raises the tint up, and inbetween the dots its hard for the tint to adhere to the glass. This causes air bubbles to be seen from inside and outside of glass. it makes the glass look dirty/spot/distorted when you look at it. a good installer will make effort to minimize the distortion.

Something which my installer at MR Tint did not do nor does he do anything about it.

I wish IGOR told me about this place before i got my tint done there.

Look's like Alvin is a stand up guy. IGORRRR!

Okay. So no Mr. Tint? I really wanted a ceramic tint so, I guess I'll keep looking.

Thumbs down

BTW, there are bunch of dust particles that can be seen from the outside and creases on the driver/passenger (both front/rear) windows as well.. So he's going to completely re-tint my car from scratch.. I think the quality of his shop is going down now...

Does Alvin have any policy rule that he can refund my $$ and remove all the tints within a certain time limit? I guess I'll check with him too but I just wanted to know if anyone had this kind of experience...
