Tint Problem

I just got my car tinted today and also got my license plates in. So after I picked up my car from getting tinted I took it to the dealer and I asked the to also take a look at my headlights because they seemed to be pointed kind of low, so I wanted them to see if they could adjust it. I completely forgot to tell them not to roll down the window so they wouldn't F up the tint but I figured the wouldn't, but lo and behold, when I got it back the DUMBA** clearly rolled the drivers side window down (I could see the swipe looking marks). Now my question is will my tint be ok? I'm so frustrated right now its rediculous.

Not rolling the window down right after installation is just a precaution. You should be fine.

most likely you will be fine... Its more of just a precaution to help prevent anything that may happen. Even when i've gotten my windows tinted the place has told me dont roll them down for 3 days, inless you need to (like a cop or something) they said it will be fine.

u should be fine was the tint in summer sun for at least a day? general rule of thumb for new tinters put your window lock on AND masking tape over all the window controls for a few days. works like a charm its what I do.

^^Thats exactly what my window guy did when I got my windows tinted. He put tape over the window controls. And it saved me twice, because I got in the car and went to roll down the window. You can also try to put the heat on inside the car so it can dry faster.
