A little info on peeling window tint on doors...
i dont know if this was already very well known, but i have been tinting windows for years now and i have seen these instances where the tint peels and it is due to something inside the door. well i just get me camaro and it has a shitty tint job on it already but it also has the peeling problem. So today i took the panel off and found that the problem is the gold stabilizer on the top of the door. this part was inexpensive and fixed the problem. SO if they is anyone else in here who is experiencing this problem go to a dealership and pick up part number...GM# 10257988. it costed me 7.15 each.
Like i said i tint windows and i plan to redo my car and perfection is the only option, therefore i had to get it fixed.

I had my tint guy lay black vinyl over the dots, then limo tint. the back window looks great- no dots. Other methods are to paint them
with flat black enamel, or i've heard that sanding them down with fine sandpaper can cause the tint to stick to them.
