tint and rear window
O.k., I got Formula One tint on my rear window 38% ultimate.
Here's what I notice, at night, when I look through my rear window, the headlights of the cars is somewhat reflected. In other words, the headlights don't come straight through the window, but it's distorted a bit.
It's a bit distracting. Is this normal or is my tint job messed up and I should take it back to be re-done?
I don't know how else to really describe it. I've never had tint on my cars before, but it didn't use to look like this.

Re: tint and rear window
2-3weeks... certainly sounds like you've given more than enoughtime for drying. Formula One has a lifetime warranty, so they'll redo it, the only concern I have is if they remove the film, that they don't damage the defroster lines or integrated antenna on the rear glass.
I had the rear glass re-tinted on one of my previous cars and when I got it back only two lines of the defroster were working, the others peeled off with the tint. Your installers should be aware of this possibility, but I would still mention it.

Re: tint and rear window
I,too, have tinted my windows and have noticed the headlight of other cars sort of being distorted. Its more the the defroster lines on the rear window are reflecting the light. its not that bad but i see what you mean. I must the G looks good with the windows tinted. So i will live with the reflections.

Re: tint and rear window
ghostie, i've always noticed this with all of my cars. Its normal. As a couple people said, its just the defroster lines in the way, they seem to be more visible w/ the tint applied. Over time you will get used to it, you wont notice them anymore, and you will totally forget about this thread. [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]
