Step 5. How To Wrap A Corner

The table is a little bit different because there is a slight pebble on the edge of the table and a 45-degree corner. So the installation will be done in two steps. First, start heating the material up and then bending it down this 45-degree pebble. And then follow it up with a double-cut.

Step 1. Heating and bending

Heat the material a little bit. You don’t want to overheat it. We need to stretch it down slightly and place it on the edge. Then secure it in place with your thumb. Lock it down so it won’t go anywhere. Now pull it slightly back up, reheat it to return it to its original shape. This will allow us to get nice even cuts without overstretching the material. Bring it back up to the bottom of the pebble. Heat it a little bit more. Once it cools down a little, start pulling and getting the corner wrapped. Lock it in place with a squeegee.

Step 2. Double-cut

To perform a double-cut, you need a fresh blade. Start cutting from the corner down the side. Give it a little touch of heat to get rid of wrinkles. Do not stretch the material here. Secure the film on the side of the corner. Overlap the first cut and cut off the excess of material. Repeat on the other side.

Join the seems of the double cut. With back and forth motion of a squeegee, pull it down to make the seem almost invisible.

Under this table, we have a flat edge. To get a clean look, we need to wrap a film underneath. Heat the film and slightly pull it underneath. You can feel that surface is flat with your fingers. Then trim along the inside edge with your utility knife. Do the same on each side.

Make sure that everything is nice and smooth under the table, and enjoy the final result.
