Would I be advised to use an adhesive? Type? I am thinking at least at the seams and leading edge. Or am I over thinking?

I would suggest watching the installation video here: http://www.garageflooringllc.com/gfllc-video-resources/ For most garage applications adhesive is not suggested and we never suggest double sided tape. I prefer seam tape to join mats together and if I have to use something at the front edge (which typically I do not) I would use the 3M #80 Spray adhesive.

Hi James - no need for adhesive - these mats are heavy and will stay down without any problem - we have 2 in our garage - for several years - I highly recommend - they are great.

Should not be a problem. There's some overlap, and it secures around the edges.

Use a regular spray adhesive, I use permatex, comes in a can. And if you really want to be secure, use a weatherstrip adhesive on the outside corners

Use a "siliconized adhesive sealant" you can get from the hardware store or here on Amazon. That'll do the trick. That wording only, don't go for that "this is basically the same thing" crap. 28 year hardware store employee.

good suggestions from all the other comments here. This should be a two person job when putting in place with the adhesive, just so the rubber is aligned quickly and straight.

The adhesive will definitely hold the wrap to the wall. Even try applying a bit of heat from an hairdryer/heat gun will allow it to bend to your will. To clarify a bit on showing any imperfection stated in another comment; it's only noticeable if you have a slit/cut/scratch larger than 1-2mm...I applied it to a wooden box with sharp edges, it hugged the corners well.

probably with an exacto and ruler or something. doubt the edges will be perfect but I recommend getting a cover for it either way.

If you want the epoxy to go all the way to the edge of your project then some of it will inevitably run off. It has a high surface tension though so it wont all just fall over the edge like water. Pour it close to the edge and in the middle (like in the picture on the box) and then use something to spread it / push it closer to the edge. In order to get all the way to the edge you will probably end up pushing some off, but most of it should stay on top. I would add that I used the exact amount recommended for my square footage (I think it was 64 oz for 9 sq ft) and I wished I had just a bit more. Also if you have any cracks do a pre seal or seal with some polyurethane first as it will leak through. There are some decent youtube videos demonstrating the proper application process as well.

I would say so... We did not sew an edge. Don't place the grommets TOO CLOSE to the edge, though. Maybe an inch from the edge ought to be good.

I used 3m High Bond double sided tape and it has been on for a long time. No problems. Make sure you use the HB tape. It is a little expensive, but has a lot of uses. A good investment for the house or the car.

They should ask the adhesive company this question. There is a solution, I am sure.

Totally weird, sounds like you've done all the right things...tried a razor blade yet? Sounds like it is impregnated into the glass, the way auto windshields have an 8 inch runner of tint across the top. I still don't think the adhesive remover has any value...have you tried goof off or OOPs? Since I can't picture it, I guess if it didn't look to weird you could put the film right over the top & hope it doesn't look bizarre. Sorry that's all I got

Hi Henry, I just folded over the edge, as may time as feasible, then attach your grommets. No need to sew, in my opinion.

Good idea. Very very carefully. These sheets are highly adhesive and difficult to make steady once the backing is off. If you took measurements of the book by each page, meaning front then back individually you could manage to cover the book. Meaning don't try to cover the whole outside at once. I think you could do this by one section at a time after you carefully cut the sheet with enough to wrap the laminate to the inside.Hope I was clear enough on that.

they have adhesive already on them. might help to add a bit more - and make sure the area is spotless before you attach or they will fall off.

I would recommend construction adhesive rather than the silicone adhesive. It will set up faster, be stronger & move durable.

I think double sided tape would work, I bought some but haven't gotten around to applying it.
