FAQs

How many tiles are in a pack?

Each pack contains 6 tiles.

What is the size of each tile?

Each tile measures 15cm x 15cm and has a thickness of 1.2mm.

How much area does one pack cover?

3 packs (18 tiles total) cover approximately 0.42 square metres.

Can these tiles be used in a shower cubicle?

No, the tiles are water-resistant for splashes but are not suitable for wet areas like shower cubicles.

Do I need grout for these tiles?

No, these tiles are designed to butt together without the need for grout.

How do I remove the tiles if I want to change them?

You can carefully prise the tile away from the surface using a flat-headed screwdriver. Clean any remaining adhesive residue with warm soapy water.

Can I apply these over existing wallpaper?

It is recommended to apply these tiles over existing flat wall tiles or painted surfaces only. Application over wallpaper is not advised as it may not adhere properly and could damage the wallpaper.

Are these tiles heat resistant?

The tiles are steam resistant but should be kept away from direct heat sources like gas hobs.

Troubleshooting

Tiles are not sticking well.

Ensure the application surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Re-press firmly. If covering old tiles, ensure they are not loose or damaged. Allow paint 4 weeks to cure before application.

Bubbles appearing under the tiles.

Carefully lift the affected tile and reapply, smoothing out any trapped air as you press it down. Ensure the surface is completely flat.

Difficulty cutting tiles precisely.

Use a sharp utility knife and a metal ruler for a straight guide. Score the tile multiple times lightly rather than trying to cut through in one pass. Ensure you snap the tile backward along the scored line.

The design looks dull after cleaning.

Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap and water. Wipe spills promptly to prevent staining.

Tiles lifting at the edges.

Ensure the edges are pressed down firmly. Check for any moisture or grease that might be preventing adhesion. Ensure the tile is not too close to a heat source or constant steam.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and flat. If applying over existing tiles, they should be flat and well-adhered.
  2. Allow the tiles to acclimatize in the room where they will be applied for 48 hours before installation.
  3. If applying to newly painted walls, wait at least 4 weeks for the paint to fully cure.
  4. Measure the area to be covered carefully to ensure you have enough tiles.
  5. Peel the backing paper off the tile.
  6. Align the tile with the existing surface, ensuring no grout lines show through if covering old tiles.
  7. Press the tile firmly into place, butting the edges against the next tile.
  8. To cut tiles, score the front surface with a utility knife and carefully snap the tile along the score line.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for existing flat wall tiles and painted walls.
  • Not suitable for: textured surfaces, uneven surfaces, walls with wallpaper, direct contact with water (e.g., shower cubicles), or areas near direct heat sources like gas hobs.

Care:

  • Tiles are water-resistant; wipe away splashes with a damp cloth.
  • Remove spillages that may stain (e.g., curry) promptly.
  • Avoid scrubbing or using harsh abrasive chemicals, as this can damage the surface.
  • To remove, carefully use a flat-headed screwdriver to pry the edge and lift the tile away. Clean any residual adhesive with warm, soapy water.
