Window tinting help... Bubbles

Hello.

I just got my windows tinted and the rear hatch has a bunch of little bubbles in it towards the top where all those black dots are. How will i be able to get these to go away?

Using a squeege right now doesnt work. Its only been about 6 hours since i got the windows tinted

Thanks

Justin

I would take it back to who tinted it for you, unless of course you did it yourself.

Yeah they told me that it should go away... but i dont know... it started getting worse across the top. Other than that its great... Tinted to 5% cash under the table. So i should just leave it in the sun and hopefully it will go away?
They said i should bring the car back next week to get the sunstrip installed and if the bubbles are still there they would take care of it. Anyways thats the situation...

When you take it bach have them go over the tint with there heat gun, that will take out the bubbles, and the tint will fill in the matrix dots on the bck window as well, if that is a problem.

i'd say have a piece of black vinyl put across the window to cover up the matrix dots...unless you want them ground down? Never seen the bubbles go away personally.
