Stupid question about tinted window

will using the defroster do any damage to the tinted rear window?

sometimes i see lots of bubbles tripped in the tinted windows on other cars, anyone know the causes of that?

No it won't do any damage to the tint. The bubbles are from the tint not being installed right.

I had my windows done professionally and they have not had a single bubble/blemish.

the issues you are talking about are caused by poor instalation, a low quality tint, or a DIY job.. The defroster will NOT cause damage to the tint providing you do not use in the first day or 2 of the instalation...
