Aspect Peel 'n Stick wall tiles for backsplashes

Has anyone used Aspect peel and stick metal wall tiles for backsplashes? Lowe's had a sample installed on a wall and they looked classy.

Sadly, they had no stock so I could not feel the weight of them.

    That looks very nice.
  • Used the smart tiles over a year ago. Easy to cut corners for around window. Live full time in trailer and stayed on and still look good.

    A lady did this project a while back and used Smart Tiles from one of the home centers. They're plastic and can be cut with scissors.
  • Being Italian, my relatives would crawl from their graves if we even thought about installing such a product.

    Aside from the threat shaming my heritage, I'd worry about the sheets peeling in high heat storage situations as well as the wall / counter seam not providing enough waterproofing.

    We used some of the ones that Home Depot sells. The design we got had tile, stone, and stainless pieces imbedded in each sheet of "peel and stick".

    It went up pretty easily and has stayed nice for almost a year. I used a 10" tile (wet) saw to make my cuts but any cuts that were into a stainless section had to be cut with a metal cutting tool.

    It does look really nice once it is installed.


    The ones you used were the "Aspect" brand? Both Home Depot and Lowes sell this brand, along with other peel and stick varieties.

    Love to see some photos of finished results from folks that have used this product.
  • My neighboor put some up and they look good.
    He did have problems with the 'peel' part, no so easy.
    Just be carefull when aligning them.

  • Weight won't be an issue for installation. I used a solid copper sheet.
