Default Nice tints .....

I have some super sweet looking tints on my integra, the problem is that the rear window has this black spotted paint stuff on the top and the tint people say they won't tint it bcuz the tint will peel off....

what can I do..? Can I scrape this stuff off with a razor blade or should I use black paint to black it out....

The rear window looks unfinished because it is tinted up until that top part...kinda ghetto.... Help meeeeee

I got something similar to that on rear glass of my Civic. They tint right over that, and it seems fine. I know what you mean about "not sticking." But so far, my tint is still good after about 2 years. I hardly wipe the inside of the glass (didn't really need to), or never try to peel it, so I never test it.

IMHO, I would have tint right over it for the finish look, and take a chance assuming they do a good job, and you take good care of it. I don't have an Integra, but from what I recall, most guys got the whole thing tinted. At least it look that way from the outside.

Civics have a small area of this on the rear window, but integras have as much as 6 inches of it from the top of the rear window... I have seen civics with it over the black with no problem.. but Integras are a different story...with such a large amount of the black stuff, it affects the tint differently, I have seen other integras with the same problem as me ! Arrgh.... this is annoying...
