THINGS YOU'LL NEED

2) FINISH THE ENDS WITH THE HALF ROUND PUNCH
3) PLACE THE SNAP ON ONE END TO SEE WHERE YOU HAVE TO PUNCH THE HOLE. MAKE SURE ITS CENTERED. PUNCH THE HOLE ON ONE END.
4) OVERLAP BOTH ENDS AND PUNCH THE SECOND HOLE.
5) APPLY THE KIWI SCUFF COVER ON YOUR TOP SIDE AND EDGES EVENLY BUT NOT EXCESSIVELY. WIPE OFF EXCESS WITH A PAPER TOWEL.
