As far as I know....'contact paper' was never made for Floors. It is not made to withstand people walking on it, I would like to know what your doing as far as a project, then can help you more :)
I wouldn't recommend using contact paper on your floor.
Use stick-on — also called self-adhesive — tiles. The are fairly inexpensive and work really well. The folks who had our house had carpeting in the kitchen. I didn’t want that, but we did not have the money for a tiled floor. My husband pulled up the rug and installed the self-stick tiles in just a couple of hours one afternoon. The kitchen looked great! Just like ceramic tile!
This project from a fellow Hometalker seems to make use of standard contact paper-https://www.hometalk.com/diy/kitchen-dining/apartment-friendly-faux-wood-floors-with-contact-paper-26279125
