if its cracking or bubbling up, it needs to be replaced. i dunno about purple. i see it all the time, i think its just cheap tint or a shitty job.

tint turns purple when it's cleaned with ammonia based products, ie: most Windex and other glass cleaners. I use ONLY Stoner Invisible Glass.

If it looks bad then don't you think it's time to replace it? Some tint jobs have lifetime warranties if there is still paperwork around...

my tint is metallic i believe SolarGaurd or someshit like that I dunno Barry Wood did it and told me NO ammonia based products. So I have an all purpose cleaner with no ammonia....its like glass cleaner but with viniger(sp) in it instead of ammonia.

viniger is an acid and not good for film either.

a good cheap cleaner is some diluted dish soap in a bottle of water. good and safe. never use newspapers to clean tinted glass, it will scratch.
