FAQs
Can these tiles be removed easily?
Yes, they can be removed, but care should be taken. Gently heat the tile with a hairdryer on a low setting to soften the adhesive, then slowly peel it away. Some residue may remain and can be cleaned with an appropriate adhesive remover.
Are these tiles waterproof?
The tiles themselves are water-resistant and suitable for splashback areas. However, they are not designed for constant submersion or areas with excessive moisture, and the adhesive's performance can be affected by prolonged wetness.
How many tiles are in a pack?
Each pack contains 10 sheets of tiles.
What are the dimensions of each tile?
Each tile measures 30.5cm x 30.5cm. The individual chip size within the tile is 8.4cm x 4.8cm.
Can I install these over existing tiles?
Only if the existing tiles are perfectly smooth, clean, and have no grout lines or imperfections. Application over grout lines will likely result in an uneven finish and potential adhesion issues.
What is the best way to clean the tiles?
A soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals or scrubbing pads that could scratch or damage the surface.
Will the silver backing prevent transparency effectively?
Yes, the silver backing is designed to prevent transparency, ensuring that the original wall color or pattern is covered.
Troubleshooting
Tiles not sticking well
Ensure the surface is perfectly clean, dry, and smooth. Re-apply pressure to the tile. If the issue persists, the surface may not be suitable.
Air bubbles under the tiles
Gently lift the tile and reapply, smoothing from the center outwards. For small bubbles, you can try carefully piercing with a pin and pressing flat.
Difficulty cutting tiles
Use a sharp utility knife or heavy-duty scissors. Score the line multiple times for a cleaner cut. Test cuts on a spare piece if available.
Tiles peeling at the edges
Press firmly along the edges. Ensure no moisture or dust has compromised the adhesive. Consider using a small amount of tile adhesive specifically designed for backsplashes if adhesion is a persistent problem in a high-moisture area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
Ensure the target surface is thoroughly cleaned, dry, and free of dust, grease, or any residue. For best results, use a degreaser and allow the surface to dry completely.
Carefully peel off the backing paper from one tile.
Align the tile with the starting point (e.g., a corner or edge) and press firmly from the center outwards to eliminate air bubbles.
Continue applying subsequent tiles, ensuring they are aligned correctly. You may need to cut tiles to fit edges or corners using scissors or a utility knife.
Compatibility:
Suitable for smooth, non-porous, and clean surfaces such as painted drywall, glass, metal, and ceramic tiles.
Not recommended for use on textured walls, unpainted wood, brick, or surfaces with ongoing moisture issues (e.g., continuously damp areas).
Care:
Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the gel-like surface.
