While the adhesive is setting up pick out a sheet of leaf, they have two sides flat and gloss, you want the flat side facing up.
Let the plug touch the leaf leaving about ½” overhang on the nose, the plug should be top down with the belly facing you. You want to center the plug as much as possible.
Gently lift the plug and leaf, now working the side closet to you slowly and evenly rub the leaf onto the plug from center to each end, don’t worry about getting it 100% flat, completely rub the leaf on both sides.
If the leaf makes it all the way around the plug, just rub the seam where the two pieces meet, the excess will tear away from itself, leaving a clean seam. Do NOT rip the leaf with your fingers, it will tear off in chunks.
If the leaf does not make it around the plug, just rub it down leaving the belly uncovered.
Repeat the process on the tail end of the plug allowing for over hang to cover the end of the plug.
