Shouldn't be bubbles
Interesting, that.
I have just had the dark window treatment on my camper. My son runs a bodyshop, and he recommended a guy who the local dealers all use.

When my camper was returned, the guy told me that the minute bubbles showing right across the tints would disappear as the adhesion of the material increased over a period of a few days. I was sceptical, but sure enough that's exactly what happened.

He also said that if a newly tinted window did not have these microscopic bubbles, inferior tint material had been used. I can't comment on that, because I have no experience other than my own satisfactory results.

I was told the same, bubbles will vanish within 4 weeks if not go back and see them.

There's a car local to me has film tinted rear windows. They look like a cross section of an Aero chocolate bar .... :D

Going back on Thursday to sort the tints out, they were very good about it, no fuss, very happy with the service and after sales.

90% happy, told me there is no way you can get it perfect with no bubbles at all, poppycot I reckon. I have a friend at WC Wraps in Yeovil, I will get him to take a look at it when I see him shortly. I will leave final judgement till then.
(I'm going to message him tonight)
