Liquid Dowels is specially formulated and tested for billiard table slate. Direction:
1) Install slate in normal manner, center slte first
2) Before installing end slates, insert paper (business card stock) about one half inch wide, between slates at three points.
3) Continue with slates installation finally aligning joints.
4) Before sealing joint, drop 3 to 5 drops of liquid dowel onto paper already in place.
5) Sheer off surplus paper and proceed with seam sealing.
6) Continue with you installation
**Always store bottle upright

What would be the reasoning behind that? (in bold)

This is similiar to using liquid super glue right?

If you glue slate to slate it will damage slates when you decide to break the table down. With paper it also works as a wick to bring glue down. But most of all the paper will peel away when you lift an end slate on break down.
