Troubleshooting

Tiles not sticking well

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from grease. For difficult surfaces or edges, consider using extra adhesive. Ensure the clear membrane is not accidentally removed during application.

Bubbles under the tile

Carefully lift the tile and reapply, smoothing out from the center to the edges. If a small bubble persists, it may be possible to pierce it gently with a fine needle and smooth it down.

Water seeping behind tiles in wet areas

Ensure the clear membrane is properly overlapped between tiles. Re-seal the edges of the tiles with a suitable waterproof sealant if necessary.

Damage to underlying tiles during removal

Attempt removal slowly and at a low angle. If resistance is met, a hairdryer on a low setting can help warm the adhesive, making removal easier. Be aware that some residue may remain and require cleaning.
