Huper Optik tint question

slammiam · 01-23-2011, 12:41 PM

Just had HO 30% installed, and noticed there was quite a bit of ghosting on one window in a cone pattern. Will this eventually go away?

At times I see this without tint. Depends on the light an angle for me I look at it.

Yes it should I have the same tint good stuff if you wear polarized sunglasses you may also be seeing the tempered glass sometimes on sunny days you also get rainbows effects.

It's definitely from the heat gun. I watched him install a window before I got bored...the final step was heat shrinking a sort of cone he left raised off the glass. Just wonder if it will eventually go away, because the other window doesn't have it...and he used the same technique.

HO is hard to install from what I hear.

You should have had a warranty with it? If you notice that it doesn't go away in a week? Take it back. btw Thats one of the best tints out on the market

It should go away. It's from shaping the tint and probably still has some trapped moisture. Give it some time to dry.
