How to attach with Warlon double-sided tape

What you'll need: Warlon double-sided tape (approx. 1 roll per door), utility knife or scissors, a ruler and a pencil

1.


 

If the door frame has a ledge, cut PVC sheet a little shorter (1/32 to 2/32 inch) than the opening of the ledge, leaving a room for the paper to expand.

2.

Apply double-sided tape on the bottom frame, vertical stiles and vertical kumikos. Do not peel the backing yet.

           
3.

Lay PVC sheet and position it. Peel the backing of tape on the bottom frame only. Press the sheet on. Only the bottom part is attached at this point.

4.

Roll up the sheet to the bottom, then peel the backing of tape on vertical frames and kumikos.

           
5.

Apply tape on horizontal kumikos and the top frame. Peel all the backing.

6.

Slowly unroll the sheet and press on taped part firmly using hands or a roller.

Caution: PVC glue affects stain or varnish.

Avoid attaching or gluing extra thick 0.45mm sheet due to the weight. Use in sandwich style shoji or between glass. PVC paper is not for horizontal use such as ceiling.
