I had my windows tinted — the work was neat, fast and well done. The film went on evenly, with no bubbles and no flaws. I'm very happy with the result.
Window tinting requires clear aftercare instructions for windows, first cleaning and questions about the result. At BESTAUTO, do not lower windows for 3 days after installation. First cleaning and drying depend on the installed product and conditions.
What to confirm at handover
- Get the exact film name and retain the work documents.
- Ask about window use, first cleaning and a compatible cleaning product.
- Agree whether stickers or mounts may touch the film surface.
- Confirm how to contact the studio and the inspection and warranty terms.
Preparation and handover are covered in the detailed installation guide. Check warranty terms for the actual material and work.
Windows, first wash and film cleaning
| Action | Guidance | What to consider |
|---|---|---|
| Lowering windows | At BESTAUTO, keep them up for 3 days. | Brief ventilation is not an exception. |
| Cleaning the film surface | After the wait specified for the installed product. | The window restriction does not approve every cleaner afterwards. |
| Washing the body and outside glass | Discuss the first wash at handover. | Tell the washer about fresh tint and retain the interior-care restrictions. |
Ordinary automotive tint film is fitted to the inside of the glass. When booking a car wash, state the installation date, material and care instructions. Agree any requirements for other body or glass coatings separately.
3M's product-care guide has its own first-days and cleaning instructions. Its timings apply to the stated product; use the instructions supplied for your film.
Why new tint may show moisture or haze
The IWFA inspection guideline explains that residual installation moisture can temporarily affect clarity and that drying depends on the film and conditions. A bubble's appearance or a single elapsed date does not identify its cause.
Do not puncture bubbles, press them out or heat the film yourself. Contact the studio if an edge lifts, visibility worsens or an area concerns you. State the installation date and what changed; an inspection determines the next action.
After initial care
Follow the material's cleaning instructions: a compatible product, soft clean cloth and gentle treatment of edges. An ammonia-free label alone does not establish compatibility. See the everyday cleaning guide for practical steps and the damage and removal guide for other problems.

BESTAUTO's current starting items: front side windows from 130 ₾, rear side windows from 130 ₾, rear window from 160 ₾, windshield from 290 ₾. Agree material, scope and total price before work; see the service price list. All services are available at both studios: Saburtalo and Guramishvili.
FAQ
Can I open a window just a centimetre?
BESTAUTO's instruction is to keep windows up for 3 days. Brief ventilation is not an exception.
Is the film fully dry after three days?
That is the window-use restriction. Complete drying and first cleaning depend on the product and conditions; follow the supplied instructions.
Do small bubbles necessarily mean a defect?
They may relate to residual moisture. Ask the studio about the concerning area without puncturing or heating it yourself.
When can I wash the car for the first time?
Agree exterior washing and film cleaning separately. Tell the washer about fresh work and use the installed material's instructions for the interior surface.
Are inspection and rework always free?
Agree inspection and warranty terms with the studio for your work. A check determines whether correction is needed.
Choose a studio to discuss care; provide the car, installation date and your question.
