What Causes Window Tint to Bubble?
Have you ever seen a car driving down the road in Oklahoma City with lots of bubbles in the back window? Do you have window tint on your vehicle currently that has bubbles? If you have bubbling auto tint, not only is it unsightly, but it also reduces your tint’s ability to effectively block light and UV rays. There are multiple reasons why your car’s window tint will bubble and blister ― read on to learn about the reasons tint bubbles, and what you can do to prevent bubbling tint from the start.
Reasons For Bubbling Auto Tint
Turbo Tint of North OKC is a leader in automotive and residential window tinting serving Edmond, The Village, Piedmont, Nichols Hills, and surrounding areas. We have the tools and training to expertly install window tint to eliminate bubbling and protect your vehicle from harsh weather and damage from debris during dangerous winds. Here are some of the top reasons bubbling can occur:
Environmental Factors
Oklahoma City is known for its hot and humid weather. It’s common to see temperatures in the mid-90s during the summer. Environmental factors, such as harsh temperatures and humidity, are rarely to blame for bubbled tint, though it’s not out of the question. Extreme heat and freezing temperatures can cause the adhesive to weaken on cheap tint, causing it to bubble and deteriorate. That’s why it’s crucial to choose professionals who will use quality materials for your window tint. Strong materials will perform better against harsh weather conditions.
Dust and Debris Caught Between Window and Tint
Before your window tint is installed, your vehicle’s windows need to be spotlessly cleaned and free of all dirt and debris. Even small particles between the glass and tint can quickly turn into large bubbles and reduce the effectiveness of your window tint. You can trust Turbo Tint of North OKC’s highly trained technicians to prevent bubbling auto tint with proper installation.
Poor Quality Tint
Not all window tint is made to last. The aesthetic appeal of window tint means there are lots of cheap tint options out there that may look good to start but aren’t built to withstand Oklahoma City’s climate. Cheap tint is more susceptible to the effects of the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays and will break down faster than a high-quality tint. Choose quality tint from Turbo Tint of North OKC to start. Our high-quality tint options feature a manufacturer's lifetime warranty, and our nano-ceramic and dyed films are top-of-the-line.
Improper Installation
DIY projects can save a lot of money. Changing your vehicle’s air filter, checking your tire pressure, and replacing fluids are all great projects to tackle in your driveway. However, it’s best to leave window tint installation to the experts. A DIY installation may seem easy, but improper installation can quickly lead to bubbling, warping, and cracking.
Our entire team of professionals at Turbo Tint of North OKC always focuses on delivering cutting-edge window tinting solutions that prioritize quality and efficiency. Whether you want to simply add a sleek, stylish new look to your vehicle with our dyed window film, or you want top-of-the-line heat reduction from our dual-layer nano-ceramic tint, our Oklahoma City auto tinting installation can be done in one hour or less.
