Maybe it got wet? I would check all the wire connectors on that door. -

Looks like the side was heated up to fix imperfections. You really only want to heat 2-3 seconds at time, not 30 seconds like above. -

If that is a piece of plastic, it really looks like heat gun damage. -

Tint installers, please help! Is this damage from the installer?
Hello professional tint installers and everyone else, I need your upmost help in solving this problem. I just got my brand new car tinted and after a few days I noticed this on my driver side door panel. Is this damage caused by the tint installer? Heat damage? I had ceramic tint installed. I should’ve done a better job looking at every little detail on my car after the work but I was preoccupied. What could this be? Please help! The cars only 2 weeks old. -

You may want to consider hiring a professional for a few reasons. 1. Difficulty of Installation Professional window tinting is a skilled task that requires precision and experience: Large windows are particularly challenging to tint without bubbles or wrinkles and contamination. Professionals have specialized tools and techniques to ensure smooth application. DIY attempts often result in noticeable imperfections: Bubbles, creases, and dust particles trapped under the film Uneven edges or gaps around the window frame Inconsistent tint darkness across multiple windows etc 2. Risk of Thermal Fracture Incorrect film selection or application can lead to serious problems: Different glass types require specific tint films to avoid thermal stress Professionals can assess your windows and recommend appropriate films They understand the relationship between glass thickness, size, and tint darkness 3. Warranty Considerations Professional installation often comes with guarantees: Many manufacturers void warranties for DIY installations Professional installers typically offer their own workmanship warranty 4. Time and Cost Efficiency While DIY might seem cheaper initially: Professionals work faster and more efficiently Mistakes in DIY installation can be costly to fix The value of a professional's time and expertise often outweighs potential DIY savings 5. Proper Tools and Materials Professionals have access to: High-grade films not available to the general public Specialized tools for precise cutting and application Cleaning solutions that ensure proper adhesion It may sound like a good idea to save a few bucks and "do it yourself", but you are not going to be happy with the results, you risk breaking the glass from thermal fracture if the wrong film is used and or if there is partial shading on the window and it'd going to look like hell.- 1

I just realized this forum might be only for the professional tinter. I'm a DIY'er and was hoping to get some expert advice on selecting the best "home product" to apply to my windows on my home in order to reduce/control the heat coming through the windows. If this is not allowed, maybe someone can point me in the right direction for DIY. Thank you! -
