1. Clean flooring where carpet will be placed.
2. Unroll carpet.
3. Position carpet into desired position.
4. Flip one end approx. 60cm to reveal bottom of carpet.
5. Tape around entire perimeter of carpet as close to edge as possible.
6. Tape additional strip 400cm on either end where guest will enter and exit red carpet.
7. Peel off tape backing from one end and press to secure bonding of tape, carpet and floor.
8. Peel remaining tape backing and press carpet to floor.
