Installation Guide

Measure where the cut must be made. Map out and mark the cut using masking tape
to cover the surface of the tile. Cut the tile. Debur sharp edges with le or sandpaper.
Take the cut tile to the work space and place it in its intended location, ensuring it ts
properly. Cut and install all remaining tiles using the same steps described above.
When tiles are installed to your satisfaction, press each again rmly with your hand.
This will ensure that the adhesive bonds to the substrate.
Allow 24 hours for the adhesive to set before exposing tile to a heat source (such as
a stovetop or oven). Clean or touch-up tiles with glass cleaner and soft cloth or paper
towels.
Tips and Techniques
For additional tips and techniques see aspectideas.com.
Deburring cut tiles
If desired, use a ne-grit sandpaper or a small metal le to debur the cut edges.
Caulking countertop seam
If desired, apply a 1/8” bead of caulk or
silicone sealant in the gap under the bottom
row. Wipe off excess sealant. Choose clear or
colored caulk according to your preference.
Edge nishing
To nish the edges of your tile backsplash,
Aspect trim is available online at
DIYdecorStore.com/backsplash/accessories.
A second option is to seal the outside edges
with caulk using the same materials and
method used to seal the gap under the
bottom row of tiles.
Adhering small pieces
Use tube adhesive for cut pieces of Aspect
that are less than a third of a full tile.
Removing tiles
If tiles need to be removed, use a putty
knife and a heat gun or hairdryer to make
the process easier. Note — by removing tiles,
you risk damaging your walls and the tiles
will be unusable.
