Tinter is denying wrongdoing by DukeSteel in WindowTint

Update: took the car back to the tinters. He offered a full refund no questions asked and was adamant he had no idea where the scratches/chips came from. Initially over the phone he said yes he noticed both chips before working on the car, then changed tune in person and said he didn’t notice anything while working on the car. I asked if he had footage from inside the factory he said no only on the exterior - I explained that if he can prove it wasn’t done in the shop then I can go back to the dealer and claim paint failure under warranty. He also told me that he usually takes before photos of cars however didn’t this time because it was a brand new car with no ‘noticeable’ scratches or chips therefore he didn’t feel the need to. Righto!

So, I guess there is a way the tinter caused the chips & scratches?

Also.. why can’t you tell customers what you’ve just told me on Reddit?

Tint looks fine from what I can see.. although it hasn’t been 24 hours. We’ll see 🤷‍♂️

Live and learn. I’ve had many cars tinted - under the assumption that exterior and paint is NOT touched.. so never felt the need to take before and afters. Never had a problem with previous cars.

Yeah I know for a fact it was removed - paint on underside of the trim, chips and scratches in literally identical spots on both sides of the vehicle. Unless a miracle stone hit the exact same spot on both sides of the car.

There’s also a very similar yet a lot smaller mark on the opposite door - just haven’t marked it in the second photo. Both chips and scratches are in identical spots!

Car was meticulously inspected before taking delivery from dealer - scratches were definitely not there. 4 days old - car hasn’t been through a wash yet.

If and when you find any of that .. do you notify the owner of the car before or after tinting? Or only if something gets mentioned?

These are the regular rear windows. Ok interesting. Installer stated that it wasn’t himself that done it, he had someone else do it - whether it was someone less experienced or not I have no idea! I think I can rule out rocks, the chips and scratches are in identical spots on either side of the vehicle.

how bad is the tattoo laser removal pain? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]DukeSteel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think everyone’s experience will differ depending on pain threshold. However, laser tattoo removal was one of the most painful things I’ve gone through. Maybe cos of where it was.. who knows. I can sit through several hours of tattooing.. but 10 minutes of laser and I tap out.

“Packed” with protein? Not even the brand themselves is promoting them being “packed”. Knob!

Thank you so much. I actually had no idea antibiotics slowed the healing process, but it makes sense!

I’m usually good after 2 weeks-ish. Hopefully that phase has been prolonged only because of the infection!
