Any suggestions on how to get this to look like ONE large graphic and not 4 seperate pieces? I've only done one piece installation in the past. A bit nervous. It's an 8' X 20' mason block wall. Please help!

Because RoughRAP is only 3.6 mils thick with a laminate, its very low profile and you won't notice the overlap. Good luck, I hope to see photos posted when it's all done!
