cut it roughly to size before u start but other thna that its pretty easy stuff to work with thats why its great. also if ur going to do multiple pieces that are next to each other make sure you match the direction of the carbon other wise it looks like

Also the 3-M adhesion promoter that you apply like paint before you put the di-noc on works really well. and you only need it around the edges.
