Use the sandpaper, let the glue dry & "rub" the patch in with a coin (quarters work good) or similar item from the center out.
i use the corner of the patch kit to squeegee the patches.
i buy/sell/use Park patches, i can get the patches in bulk form too... REMA kits became too spendy for my low budget customers.
i miss the fire portion of installing Monkey Grip patches...
