  • Window ringing & dot matrix

    Hi had the rear windows tinted on the rear screen where the film goes over the heater dot matrix it doesn’t sit totally flat and leaves a white looking halo as anyone got any cures for this at all it is quite normal and was stated in Tinter’s website but just wondered if it can be got rid of

    how long ago did you have it tinted?
    they use liquid to make the film lay flat and remove air bubbles, once the liquid evaporates the lines should not be that visible
    do you have photos you can post so i can compare to what i have

        I'm at work too. Sounds like moisture, let it evaporate and don't wind the rear windows down for a few days

          It’s in rear screen around the little dots of heater matrix ceramics not the rear windows

            I had this when I got my vectra b windows done and it never went away until I ripped them all back off the windows.

            The tint place said it would take a week for it to dry out completely..... bullshit.

              Side windows are brilliant just the rear over the little dots

                          I've got the halo around mine mine as well. He said they all do that and from looking online that does seem to generally be the case.
                          I've got a few bubbles in the rear screen but hopefully these will settle down in the next few days, otherwise will be speaking to the installer.

                            Yup researched the halo thing and is normal if the ceramic dots are proud now mine has settled down I have a halo all the way round on Thursday just after it was done the halo was patchy and looked crap but now it is continuous and a bit lighter so looks ok
                            And yes he is right the bubbles will go hada couple on another car I had tinted and they went
                            Just don’t be tempted to get rid of them yourself they will go
