Works great for backsplash installation, I used this product before and tiles did not come off and looked great so I used it again! It is so much easier than using traditional methods. No mess, and it is super simple, just stick it on and push the tiles for 30 seconds to bond.
My husband and I bought a new house and completely renovated the kitchen. We didn’t want to have to go through the messy mortar and waiting process so began looking for an easier cleaner option. We quickly found musslebound and thought it would be perfect for our needs. It includes detailed application instructions and we also had fun doing it. We got the job done so quickly and our backsplash looks professionally done. We loved it so much we are considering doing our shower too.
This product is awesome. Was a bit nervous that this adhesive would not allow the flexibility of a traditional mastic or mortar, but as long as you only lightly put in place until you are certain it is where you want it, it is easy to remove and adjust. Definitely recommend!
Very impressed with how easy it was to use this. We used it around our fireplace and it worked great!! Would never know we didn’t have mortar underneath the tile!
I utilized the tile mat for a glass tile mosaic backsplash. It was very easy to use and made placing the tiles a breeze. I followed the instructions and ensured the wall was clean then began adding the mat and tile. Since I’m only doing pieces at a time I wait to add the adhesive to the wall till I’m ready to add the cut tile then put it all up and grout it. It’s easy to cut and place around outlets and corners and there’s no mess from mortar. It’s been up for a week and is still holding strong!
This product allows you to skip the tile set/mortar mess and get right to the application. It was easy to apply and seems to have good adhesion. You can adjust the tiles if you do it before you press them into the foam. I would use this again for wall application in non-shower areas.
At the end of a full remodel project on my childhood home, we made a decision to introduce tile in the form of a kitchen backsplash. I’ve always hired someone for tile work, but decided to give it a go myself. Used Musselbound and premixed grout. Could not have been happier with the outcome and wonder why anyone would go through all the mess of a traditional install. Great product and great outcome if I may say so myself. Checkout the tri-level remodel from start to finish below.
I did a side-gig backsplash and decided to try this adhesive mat to reduce the total job time and limit the number of visits to the house. Wow, this was fast and clean! I had the stove pulled out, set the tile, immediately grouted that area, and put the stove back in place right away. How awesome is that! Like any product we have to live with the portions they are sold in. But I do wish there was at least one more option larger or smaller. I needed 18sqft, the roll is only 15sqft, but the extra money for a second roll was worth it. – My own house will need 34sqft.
My Tile Man didn’t get back to me in time so I decided to DIY my laundry room. My sister told me about this product and it was so incredibly easy. I didn’t have a lot of cuts to do so it was pretty straightforward. The learning curve is that once the tile is down it’s really really hard to re adjust. But once you get the flow of things I was able to tile my laundry room in a couple hours and I grabbed that evening it looks incredible and it was a mess free and I saved a bunch of money.
I was looking to install a glass mosaic backsplash in one of my bathrooms. I was grabbing all the mortar etc when I noticed this on the shelf and thought no mixing no mess and I can grout when done which saves me time. So I took the chance and it was great. I simply rolled it on the wall and cut where I needed to. As far as the glass tiles they stick and you can pull them off if you need to reset, keep in mind no wiggle so know your tile application. I slapped them all on, and broke out my grout, let it sit for 6 hours then sealed. It has been almost a year now and they are holding strong. I think this is a great product all around. Apologies some pics are sideways, it seems to happen when they upload and I can’t rotate them upright.
