Mine looks a bit rough. Lots of bubble imprints and some dime size bubbles. Will it settle or is this one just bad?

I applied in a room with steam and laid it immediately on a clean screen.

I’ve applied quite a few but I don’t recall any looking this questionable.

I went ahead and removed it then did the second one. Much better. The trick is to let it fully settle on the screen on its own for 30 seconds or so before you squeegee it at all.

I used amFilm before on a Pro 10.5 and Nintendo Switch, no issues. Yeah most bubbles should just settle if you wait a bit.
