2. Continue to gradually peel off the remaining release film while hand pressing the sheet to the wall making sure to adhere it completely and avoiding air pockets and wrinkles.
3. After each sheet is hand installed, use a hard rubber hand roller to apply pressure over the entire surface to ensure uniform and intimate contact with the substrate.
4. Overlapping of sheets in the field of the wall that run horizontally should be a minimum 3 in and overlaps that run vertically should be a minimum 3 in. Laps at window openings and other detailed areas with flashing products should be a minimum 3 in.
