Arrow Tinting Windows

Hey All,
I got my windows tinted 4 days ago and I've noticed they stick when I try to roll up or down the windows. I can see a foam pad looking thing in the door that its sticking to. Anyone else had this problem??

You know that you have to let the tint dry for like a week before you go rolling your windows up or down right?

Yeah, they told me not to roll them up or down for 2 days. And I did that and they were still having a hard time so I gave it two more days and tried it again this morning. The tint wasn't moving or anything when I tried to roll them up/down. But I could see a piece of rubbery foam sticking to the tint. I'm wondering if its just the chemicals they used and if I wait a few days and wash the windows if it'll go away??

There was a TSB on it, if you search for "tint TSB" you should be able to find it. I had mine tinted 4 months ago and have had no problems so far.

I've searched for the TSB on the window tinting and can't find any links to the actual TSB. Does anyone have a link??

Thats alright, I swung by the dealership during lunch and they were easy to work with, I setup a time for Friday to get the rubber weatherstripping along the bottom of the window (on the inside) replaced with a felt one so the windows can go up and down easier with the tint. Thanks all.
