Yeah, they use a solution with adhesive and a solvent to apply the tint to get it to stick. Over time the solvent will evaporate leaving an adhesive residue to hold the tint on.

You can have some hazing and very small bubbles immediately after tint is placed, but this should subside and completely disappear after the tint is fully dry. If you have large bubbles or the bubbles persist after the tint is dry, then it's probably not going to go away.
Oh, see, I didn't know that. I thought the film was just like little stickers you can stick on your window that you can peel off and put on other windows, except that over time, it becomes a permanent sticker.

:thinking:

They're slowly going away and, hopefully, they'll all go away.

Hey, guys? When they tint, do they do anything that could leave scratches on the outside paint of the car? When they first tinted it, the car looked dusty, but today, after a car wash, the "dustiness" is gone, but there are LOTS of scratches all over the car.

Get some Meguiars ColorX and wax it using that, then wax it with real wax.

Should solve the problem.
