Question about tint.

I got my windows tinted today and was told not to roll the windows down for 24 hours. well the first thing my friend did when he got in the truck was roll down his window. i caugt him halfway and he rolled it back up. at first, all i saw was a little crease where he stopped rolling down the window. but tonight i noticed that from the point he stopped rolling down the window, down, is lighter then the top half. my friend already offered to pay for them to retint it, but i dont know of that is necessary. does anyone know what he did by rolling down the window and if the tint will even out? if not, does the whole thing have to be reapplied or can the tint shop do something to fix it?

thanks

give it some time to heat and cool and few days, if you still don't like it, take it back to the place and see if they can fix it.

tint is weird stuff.

Run your hands down the window. Get all the bubbles and creases out as best you can. Let the window sit out in the sun for a couple days. Itll go away... Tint is weird like that, takes a while to cure, but when it does cure, it looks great.
