Question about 3M "Curing"

Hey guys, just had my 3M bra installed yesterday. I've got a few questions.

- How long does it take for the "bubbles" to all smooth out?
- There are numerous "lines" that the guy said are just "worms", ie, bubbles, has anyone had these on their bra? Do these just go away as well?
- How long should I wait before making an assessment about the quality of the install?
- Is there anything I can do to speed up the "curing" process? The guy said to run my full lights on to help get the moisture out of the headlight covering. He also said to try and bake the bra out in the sun.

I guess I'm being slightly ****, but there are portions of the bra that look really good, and there are portions that look really awful with the bubbling (ie, it's pretty noticeable).

I've got a black car and i dont have any complaints (you're welcome to check it out if you like) re "curing" ...on a different note, just curious, who installed your clear bra? Shieldpro (www.shieldpro.com) is an authorized Xpel Dealer -- he did not have the proper cutouts for the headlight washers (because Xpel is US based) -- the bumper has be redone once and will need to be redone again... he's using my car as a "guinea pig" for now ...( i dont mind and he's not charging me any extra)...

Hey Ron.

Are you happy with the service? How long did it take for them to install? Lastly, how much??

I definitely want to do this but am a little short on dough from picking up the car on Friday...

I'm not aware of any "curing" required. The installer has to work the bubbles out when the stuff has not dried on yet.

Sounds suspect to me!
