Take each individual carpet stair tread and prepare it for installation. The treads shown in the video feature a pre-applied adhesive backing covered by a protective plastic film. Carefully peel off this plastic film to expose the adhesive layer. The video shows the adhesive applied in a distinctive wavy pattern, designed to provide strong grip. Only remove the film when you are ready to apply the tread to prevent the adhesive from collecting dust or drying out.
