I use Worldtex and use it just like any other covering. It is a bit thicker than other coverings so straight lines for your edges are a must. I have never had any issue's with the seams coming apart at all. You need to be careful with the heat gun, as if you use it to much, it will start to pull the seams apart. This really is a problem if you paint the covering as you will get stripes on the seams. Good luck, Dave
