Use a hairdryer around the edges and corners. It makes it stretchy and pliable so it will form around perfectly

I thought the countertop looked better black. Nice job though

[marlobradford]

I wish you would have showed how to do the corner triangle part of the counter .. it was the only reason i watched this and you skipped right over that

[HausOfTheePrincess]

Use a hair dryer or heat gun to seal in the edges.
I saw someone else do it, and I tried it when I put paper on my closet doors. It works

I’ve been thinking about doing this to my bathroom countertop but I’m wondering why no one is popping the sink out to lay the paper? Would this not make it better so water doesn’t get under the paper? Easier installation? Your advice appreciated, thank you!

Thank you for this. I have a back to my counter like yours and had no idea how to put the paper on. This was a great help!

[avynj]

Awesome video! This is almost identical to what I'm planning to do so this was great to be able to visualize the process!

Thanks for making this it was very helpful. The end of my countertops (the side that touched you when you stood in front of it) is rounded, and I have two L-shaped corners. I am wondering how you managed your L-shaped corner, It looks like you did the middle at an angle?

[arberry]

Did you overlap the contact paper or place it right next to the other piece?

Hi, great job..how much rolls to used for the counter

[Sir_Caffeine]

What happens of the kids put a hot pot on it. Does it melt or is it heat resistant?

[Smartgirlz]

I’m pretty sure your caulking gun has a point cutter for you.. it’s the little silver hole on the side and it cuts a perfect shape

[charmainenepinak]

Did you not use a heat gun? Or need one?

[angel-milliefinancialservi]

It look much better the way it was than the contact paper.

How durable is this? Will it withstand hot items?
