kitchen/bathroom backsplash - anyone ever use this?

Smart Tiles Sabbia 10.00 in. x 10.06 in. Peel and Stick Mosaic Decorative Wall Tile Backsplash in Beige-SM1043-1 - The Home Depot

I am considering these for my kitchen and maybe bathroom backsplashes. they seem like they would be a significant upgrade from the current fake wallpaper border backsplash in my trailer without the weight penalty of traditional tile.

does anyone have any experience with these? Home Depot about 20 miles away supposedly has them in stock, I plan to run up there and pick up a sheet or 2 to see them in person.

My will be trying it. Unfortunately, at our HD it is an 'online only' item. Lowes has some in stock, but, of course, not the color or pattern we want.

I just used these to replace my mirror back splash. Very easy to use.

I think I am going that route but where those tiles would go I have outlets so I would need to not only cut edges but in the middle of them? Do they cut pretty accurately?

You can cut with a razor blade. I didn't have to cut around anything so I just used scissors.

Yes, did this several weeks ago.



Bathroom; we cut them down to a less intrusive height


When you get to the windows, use the paper that stick to the adhesive from a previous tile and use a pencil to trace the correct shape and then use a razor blade to cut it so it fits around the window opening.

The change really looks great! What a difference with the "before" and "after" pics.

Mine came from the factory with the tile and what ever they did they should have used additional glue as my started fall off the walls after a month. I re glued and no trouble since. Adds a nice touch. Later RJD

Kitchen backsplash

Went with this in the kitchen from Menards. It's called Aspect Metal. May use the tile in bath.

Looks great! Must be easier to clean (we actually cook). Looks like one of my next projects.

Used them in our new GT3 and worked out great. Make sure it is at least 65 inside of the RV or they may not stick good. Easy to use.
