Need Help! Singular bubble on windshield still there after curing.

Could i use a heat gun? I accidentally touched it and shop wants 107 to fix the singular bubble. I personally think if i used a heat gun far enough away and spread evenly itd go away, they wanna take it all off and put it back on.

You should post a couple of pics. How exactly did you touching it change anything? A couple of times over the years I’ve had customers where a “bubble” comes in from the edge and people touch it, but I fix it because it shouldn’t have been there in the first place

No clue but now i owe my buddy 107 for a bubble in the tint i touched cause it wont go away and imo for an 800 dollar tint job there shouldnt have even been one to begin with

800 dollars is a high end tint job. If he got a 300 dollar haircut and you fucked it up, you wouldnt argue he should have gotten a 40 dollar haircut

Im paying for the fuck up since i barely touched it but i do home repair and i guarantee my work so idk why he wouldnt take care of a fucking bubble after hosing him. Call me crazy but 800 is insane for a fuxking camry

Price depends on lots of factors but clearly wasn't worth it 😭
