Wow, I am lucky and happy I watched this. I have already tiled my kitchen 2 years ago with that. Only temp till we get the rest of the house done. I have not had an issue with them, thankfully. We will be buying a camper soon and I will probably use these in there permanently. Now that I know this I will definitely use gorilla glue since those walls are a different texture. Great video.

Thanks and I'm glad to hear you haven't had any issues! It's really all about what you're applying them to, how clean it is and if you need to use adhesive. Best of luck with the camper job!

Why not do the whole thing with the heat resistant? Then they all match.

I think that's a great idea. In our case there was only one pack of the heat resistant (in that style) at the store and it was 90% off but generally speaking yes - that would make a lot of sense.

I have to agree with you there. I admit I didn't do a great job on it and should have slowed down and worked on the alignment better. Plus the combo, as I mentioned in the video, just doesn't look that great. I was definitely going for function over form here but hopefully the two tips about the glue and the heat resistant tiles will help some people.

3m makes a pre glue that you paint on and it keeps adhesives from sticking. We use it in the auto industry with 3m double sided tape and velcros. I've had it peel off paint before the sticky pad came off. Called 3m tape primer.

@CharmaineSilva777 Жыл бұрын

I am confused. So you put paint on a glue so tape won't stick to it? Why do you try to put tape some where you don't want it to stick? How do you paint glue? Sorry, I am in the medical field and work in the operating room with a lot of tools, and I work with a lot of tools at home so I am always curious.

@LRN2DIY Жыл бұрын

I just checked out the 3M stuff and it looks like it would work really well in these types of cases. I assume you meant that it keeps the adhesives from falling off, right? Not keeps it from sticking? Anyway, it's awesome that we have options and certain wall textures really need something like that in order to work.

I love Gorilla products. I used their white construction adhesive to repair a knife block that, after 40 years, came apart near the base. It was easy to use and I let the block sit for 24 hours before moving it - I knew next to nothing when I did this and didn't even clamp it. Nearly five years later it's still holding strong.

Called 3m they recommend their 80 sprsfor vinyl tiles because of the tile chemical composition. Something about plasticine and degrading over time. So keep in mind the type of peel and stick if you plan to use it long term.

I wonder if the sticking issue might be on the tile side. It looks pretty shiny and slick on the front. If it's that way on the back that might be the problem. I wonder if it were more rough on the back would you have such issues. That gorilla glue is awful permanent.

I didn't like the look of these two tiles together either. It's functional for the space, at least. If I were to do it again I'd either do what you suggested - use the heat resistant tile everywhere or find a better combo. I think the heat resistant tile that I chose is just kind of ugly but that's probably why it was 90% off at Home Depot ;)

Why is there a chair rail in that small space ? I would have just removed it first. Makes no sense. Also I would just buy some spray adhesive for added adhesion. And to the left of the stove I would not put tiles there just paint that paneling to match the other walls. And t having two types of tiles does not look tight, Just cover the whole area with the more durable ones. It is a small area

All viable options, yes. I believe the trim is there (in this case) to cover a seam in the panels so my options were to either leave it and only do a backsplash area, like I did, or remove it and tile the entire wall. I would have gone with a different looking tile / backsplash in that case but that's certainly an option.

@uscitizen898 3 ай бұрын

Glad to know how to keep them adhered 🥰 but I'm sorry to say I'm not excited about how the two tiles look together. Sorta looks like you ran out of one style and filled in with the other. I think because you needed heat resistant your look would have been more cohesive using all of that tile. Just my opinion as an interior decorator.

Good video but…you should have removed that black wood line and finished the whole backsplash in the SAME tile. Using two different tiles made it look really chopped up. The eye doesn’t know where to look because you have the black wood, subway tiles and the heat resistant with a conflicting design. If you like it though👍🏼 I would fix it

Yeah, they look pretty cool and convincing but they are trash. It’s not hard to find flashing or stainless to cut out and have just stainless, you can do plexiglass that can be wiped down easily Tile is difficult and without a tile counter a tile backsplash is it appropriate either? As crappy as it sounds, the linoleum is a good product in the right applications, but consider what the purposes are, backsplash is for where things can splash it could get hot things will get on it exposed to a variety of things with different PH temp all Realistically, the best backsplash would be some sort of metal that can easily be wiped down without a texture that can harbor bacteria But also certain types of wood could be nice as well. There’s a level of creativity, but it’s hard to tell what’s gonna go with what I mean I’m surprised our backsplash is aren’t all LED screens.
