I wonder why anyone would want it to be applied wet. With round shape, which is slightly (12" vs 300 mm) bigger than target size (of boro glass), and being bendable to be applied in line, it works perfectly being dry (just don't forget to remove protective film, lol).

Applying wet allows you to move it around since the stickyness of the sticky stuff is nullifed until it dries. It helps to get the air bubbles out. Tho, i just apply it dry. I aint got time for that. :D

I just failed installing the adhesive sheet wet. Guess I'll order another round sheet and try it dry. If it doesn't work then I'll wait a few weeks and order a round PEI sheet with adhesive on it.

That is true. It's a two step process.
