If you install it wet, its easier to work with, able to be stretched tighter and when it drys, it tightens even more securing it to the header even better. It will be less likely to unravel.

Yup, it smoke a little bit after you put it on. I used it and sold thosands of rolls, never known anyone to have any problems.
