Washing car after tint?

The care instruction says wait 2 days after. Today is my first day after getting my tint done, but my car is in DYING need of getting a car wash. Should I just go ahead and wash it tonight or will that be a serious mistake?

you can wash it...just make sure water doesn't leak and get to the tint.

i'd suggest waiting the two days, though.

unless you're going somewhere that you need to impress...just wait it out.

Yeah, it is fine. The tint is on the inside of your window and will not be affected. Just make sure you do not roll your windows down for 2-3 days. Also do not use window cleaner for that time period. Once you do, do not use anything with amonia in it.
