Aspect Peel and Stick Stone Overlay Kitchen Backsplash - Medley Slate (Approx. 15 sq ft Kit) - Easy DIY Tile Backsplash

i installed this over old 80's paneling and wallpaper. i used recommend loctite for extra adhesion. product is light weight and easy to cut with tin snips. i had looked at other foam panels but too thick and unrealistic, stone tiles too heavy and would not be able to stick to base surfaces. the closest thing i can compare it to would be weight and thickness of an asphalt shingle. just love the look and character it adds to a room.

These tiles look terrific! You can tell they are made from real stone because no two tiles are alike! Our project was quite a bit more expensive than I’d have preferred, we used them for wainscoting instead of backsplash, so there was a lot more square footage involved. We installed them on top of rock-look wallboard, so we used Loctite PL3 to make sure they stayed put. I had a few areas of the wallboard that I scrubbed with bleach to remove mildew and found that the tile’s own adhesive stuck extremely tightly to those areas in particular, so trust the manufacturers recommendations about preparing the surface because I now wish I’d scrubbed all of the areas whether they already seemed clean or not! They are easy to cut with tin snips or a saw, but almost impossible to cut with a utility knife because of the layer of fiberglass they use to strengthen the tiles. DIY Decor was extremely helpful and responded quickly to my inquiries. They also cheerfully refunded the extra tiles I had purchased because I had calculated the footage incorrectly, and didn’t charge anything for return shipping. I’m a very happy customer!!

We purchased this product after seeing one of these tiles in person at our local hardware store (but it was only sold individually at the store so we ordered here in bulk since we needed so many tiles). We installed this tile to cover our new TV and electric fireplace wall.The pros: Using the recommended Loctite adhesive, the tiles were very easy to install and stayed in place (we did not try installing a tile without the adhesive). We purchased the Tin Snips TOOLMAK 10 Inch Straight Pattern Tinners Snips with Comfort Grip Sheet Metal Cutting Shears Heavy Duty for $16 and the tiles were super easy to cut with those. The thicker tiles were a little tougher but it was much easier than breaking out any bigger tools. The tiles themselves are gorgeous and fit perfectly with our rustic modern theme that pairs gray tones with wood. I love the 3d quality of the tiles that provides dimension and the feel and look of real stone all in a very easy tile to use. Also, using the recommended Miracle Sealants 511QT6 511 Impregnator Sealer (which was super easy to use), you can't even tell that you sealed the tiles with anything and didn't discolor the tiles at all.The cons: The only cons we ran into with this product was (due to my husband's OCD) realizing that the tiles are NOT perfectly straight. So, my husband would put a level on the tile as he installed it so that the ones above and below would also be level, but because the tiles weren't level - this didn't matter. We still had to be careful that our rows didn't become crooked (if that makes sense). Also, a couple of the corners of the tile did come up after a while, but we just added additional adhesive and haven't had any other problems. We will need trim to cover the outside corners.Overall I would highly recommend this product as it is beautiful and easy to work with. However, be patient and cautious when working with it and don't take for granted that because your first row is level, that the remaining rows will be as well. I am very very happy with the finished product!!!!

Looks and feels like real stone. Absolutely gorgeous and easy to apply. I didn’t prep the wall beforehand, but it seems like it will still hold well. Love it. Definitely stagger it though to make it look better. I accidentally forgot to on this wall, but I think it still came out alright. It’s even prettier up close.

I bought 22 square feet to do a splash in my kitchen. I decided to hire a professional tile installer so it would look perfect.He was very skeptical when he saw the product as he thought it was too thin. He said it looked like wallpaper.He did a great job. It ended costing about $1000 but it really looks great. I had him professionally seal the stone as well and caulk at the bottom where it meets the counter top to avoid any moisture from getting behind the tiles It looks like a much more expensive job. I'm very happy with itI added more stone and completed the entire back wall of my kitchen. It all looks amazing. I strongly recommend applying a stone sealer and color enhancer afterwards to really boost the look, and protect the stone from any splashes. I went back and ordered more and completely filled in the wall which looks fantastic. I also refinished my upper cabinets for a complete remodeled look
