What happens here

Immediately after applying the adhesive, the installer uses a small putty knife to gently scrape away any excess adhesive that has squeezed out from the vertical joints. Following this, he uses a white cloth or paper towel to wipe the seams clean, ensuring a smooth, tidy, and professional finish without visible adhesive residue.

Goal: Achieve clean, smooth, and professional-looking vertical joints
