If you have no idea on how to fix tint feeling better to bring it to tint shop. But in case, you think that's its pretty easy better to read this ==> How to Fix Window Tint Peeling | eHow.com

Was just setting up my car to bring for tints in the morning. I removed the door cards to give them more room to work with and found a trick to help with the install. On the lower door jam is a rubber compression sensor that tells the car if the door is open or closed. If you back out the philips head screw about a half a turn it must break the ground and disable the switch because the window juts up as if the door is closed which will allow them to get deeper below the glass seal on the door to make sure it doesn't peel up. DO NOT forget to tighten the screw so the window drops before you close the door or the glass will smash into the window arch.

Sorry just saw that ALT_370 addressed this issue a couple post up. I'm a dumb ***

If you want a fast fix, use clear fingernail polish to make the tint flush. I did this to my passenger side and I haven't had an issue since.

Hahaha! It should be bright side! Lol! Hope your car window tint get fix soon!:icon17:

L/.

Add me to the list. Going back for the third time this weekend to get the driver's door redone. Almost at the point of ripping the tint off the front doors and saying screw it :mad: But, I'm going to take the door panel off for these yahoos and see if they can get it right.

I made the mistake of renting/driving a Versa from San Diego to Vegas and back, I wanted to kill myself.. the seats are the WORST!!! Goes fast down hill in neutral though,, 80 in a Versa,,, feels like 5 in a Z :driving

I will go for window tinting tomorrow, lets see, what will happen

2013 370z Tint problem!
 

Wondering if anyone else has had problems with getting your windows tinted?? I just bought a 2013 370z and decided to get the windows tinted. I asked the tint place (which did my old car with no problems) if the windows going up and down a little bit when opening the door would mess the tint up. He said no it will not be a problem. After the first day the driver window tint started peeling up. I called him and he said he would redo it and it will not have a problem. Now after the 2nd time and 2 days later it started peeling AGAIN :mad:. Has anyone else had this problem!!!!

didn't he tell u to wait like 3 days or so until you roll down yor windows?

yeah the windows up and close a little bit when getting in and out of the car.

Its a hard one with our car. I would pull the fuse for the windows, but if you do this you have to be very careful when shutting the door because the glass can contact the body. It is possible however. Your not going to get around it any other way unless you let the car sit for 3 days at the tint shop, which im sure you do not want to do.

Your not supposed to roll your windows down for a few days so the tint can adhere to the window. Depending on the weather. If it's sunny then it will take less (3-5 days)

the car isnt the issue. an doesnt have to leave it at the tint shop. the guy is not giving extra tint down under the rubber an it also wasnt sticking well do to dust particles or whatever the case may be. so the tint is either cut shorter than what it needs to be or there is someing thats not allowing it to stick properly.

Never had a problem with my tints.

What is wrong with everyone's responses? Are you guys just not reading or what? useless....

A competent tint shop should have NO problems with the window's automatic movement. Many sports cars have the same function. Don't listen to these other clowns, you shouldn't have to let the car sit for days without driving it. I had my car tinted on a rainy day and drove all over the place for the following week and had no problems. Your tint shop SHOULD apply the tint under the seal so there's no pick point for the tint to get peeled up. Have them keep doing it until they get it right. If they keep ******* up them get your money back and find someone who knows what they're doing.

A good shop would of had a heat gun or even a blow dryer to make sure the tint stuck properly. This happened when i first tinted my car. Took it back and they fixed it. Just go back and take a blow dryer n tell them to use it. Haha

Yep, no problems with my tint also (Llumar brand FWIW).

The same day I got my tints done, I opened and closed my door at least 6 times afterwards with no issues.

PS - We have a sticky about this in this very section, did you look at it?

Well F*ck you too. Just trying to help the guy out, its what I have done in the past and worked well for me. Go have a beer or something.

x2 :happydance: i always put a note somewhere "do not roll down windows" it always helped :tup:

WOW, guess it is hard to find a good tint shop these days since you can find them just about on any corner. I have been using the same guy for over 15 years. He is awesome. I am very picky and I never even once had to worry about his workmanship. Once you find someone that is truly good, stick with them.

as stated above, their are 1 screws on each door jam,
light switch has a rubber boot around it remove the screws so the windows don't auto roll down and up...
...u can shot the doors with the windows up just don't slam them
let the tint seal for 2 days and you should not have that problem.
that's what I did and it worked fine....

where did you get it done?

I got my car tinted last week. They put a sticker over my window controls that says not to touch the windows for 3-5 days. They also said I needed to let this specific tint "cure" to the windows for 2-3 weeks. No washing with any ammonia based products. I now can't get fast food as easily but at least I won't be as much of a fat ***.

I got the "Ultimate" as seen here.

I had my windows done about 6 months ago. MY passenger window just started peeling last weekend, and i roll my windows up and down constantly. i roll them down almost at all times at lower speeds then up for freeway/empty backroads driving, then back down for the canyons...

Tint shop gave me a lifetime warranty, so no worries.

Just wanted to share that my windows were recently tinted and I had peeling in the exact same position but on the other window.

Passenger side at the front bottom corner just peeling from the corner.

The tinter fixed it free of charge thankfully.

He even took time to show me how far down they apply the tint on the window (a good 1" or so below the window wipes).
