Use a grout float to set the tile into the thinnest instead of your hands. This ensures a flat, uniform installation

Always cover your counter top! A good tip is to use the cardboard from the backsplash boxes. It can be a real pain to get off depending on what thin set you use.

You get grout off a granite counter by spraying water and use a double edge razor blade (small or go to a janitorial store and get a window cleaner blade handle and blade come separately). Only scrape one way- do not scrape back and forth or you will scratch surface only move blade forward all areas and keep wet remove the chunks....clean with Floor Brite (a neutral cleaner for stone flooring) polish granite with a marble polish spread manually thinly leave on a few minutes then buff manually with a towel for polishing polish from janitorial supply store. The chemical cleaners half the time sold in Walmart and supermarket are crappy cleaners that make people suffer from allergies. I do construction rough, final clean up and painting of custom homes.

Very helpful instructional video. Thank you helping the community out! Though I have an issue with installing the schluter channel aligned perfectly with the bottom of the cabinet where the backsplash extends outward along the wall to the edge of the countertop. Generally you want to avoid cutting tile pieces on the top row since that area is one of the more visual parts of the backsplash. I'd suggest to make sure with that part of the backspalsh the top row extends past the bottom cabinet line with un-cut tile pieces and install the schluter pieces around it. The area where the top row tile meets the cabinet bottom will have to be cut. Does that make sense?

Thank you bud, eliminated almost all uncertainties I had going into my first mosaic tile job for my home rebuild / remodel - post hurricane Ida. Only debating weather or not to replace my new drywall with a backer board for the area to be tiled? It's a backsplash in the corner of a bathroom where a claw foot tub will sit, not a shower or tub wall proper. have the moisture barrier adhesive meant for humid areas. Not really wanting to rip out drywall, but don't really want to have to deal with tile coming off the wall down the road. Backsplash will be about 3-1/2 ft high....anyone have any thoughts on if the drywall can take it? It's already been finished and textured with a light orange peal. If I keep it in place, I was thinking to lay a layer of mastic down first to smooth out the light orange peel texture, and let it cure before proceeding to install tile.

Isnt't it better to start from the corner ? And isn t it better to just remove a few small pieces of the mosaic instead of cutting the tiles where you have the outlets? And are you sure it is better to start with the trim (profile) ? Just wondering
@HipposaurusRex 5 жыл бұрын
The problem with starting from the corner is that you'll have a cut edge showing way out in the open, it's much better to make your cuts in corners or near the bottom of the tile to keep the factory edges in view and not your own cuts. As far as the outlets go, if the stars align you'll be able to just cut the mesh and remove a few tiles, but more often than not you'll need to cut tiles to make sure the faceplate on the outlet covers any gaps. As far as starting with the schluter or not, that's kind of personal preference. If you install it correctly, it gives you a nice plumb or level edge to work off, which makes the rest of the tiling much easier.

I've read you should only tile the back wall and not the sides walls, forcing you to use the expensive edge trim in the first place. Having the tiles hang in the air and sticking out doesn't look good. But love that you bent the metal, otherwise you have to buy corner connectors to join the metal, and not every profile will come with corner connectors.

@chipdwyre3120 3 жыл бұрын
It always disappoints me to see people use a file incorrectly. Metal and wood files, like saw blades are designed to only work in one direction. As you draw your finger along the tile you will notice that it feels rougher in one direction than the other. Using it like sandpaper with a back and forth motion tends to dull the teeth much faster and does little on the backstroke.

Is this for real. No disrespect but I don't agree with none of it. For one why would you put your trim so its under the cabin. That means you have to notch the tile and cut the rest short. Almost 30yrs in the trade and I know we all do it differently but this is crazy. Even the trowel is way to small. I was also taught that all your cuts go to the corner. The other cut should go down on the granite top. Its not as easy to pick up on if you have a small cut or counter top isn't very level. Once again just my opinion .
