• Accurate Measurements and Cutting: Position the cork veneer against the intended surface to measure accurately. Cut the cork material precisely using suitable tools. For any necessary holes, like around electrical sockets, use a wallpaper knife with care.


• Applying the Cork: Gently lay the cork leather fabric on the surface, starting from one edge and working your way across to avoid any air pockets or creases.


• Pressing and Smoothing: Once positioned, press the cork onto the surface. Use a roller or a soft cloth to ensure it fully adheres without any gaps.


• Neat Finishing: Remove any excess cork material for a clean edge, ensuring a professional appearance.


• Drying Time: Give the adhesive sufficient time to dry thoroughly. This patience is key to a durable and lasting finish.
