This is the most awesome product. I have never put up tile in my LIFE and with this product I was able to install a beautiful subway tile backsplash. The job was not as messy as I had imagined and the tile looks amazing. Since I have no experience I have to give the credit for the amazing result to the products I used! This stuff is REALLY worth it’s weight in gold!
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!
We wanted to tile the face of our fireplace and unfortunately, no one wanted to take on a small job so we decided to try this. Worst case scenario we rip it off and just keep waiting until we could find somebody. It was so easy! It adhered to our cement board no problem and it gave us the luxury of doing the project in segments because we weren’t working with something that dried. Have to say, we did an amazing job-our install looks better than our backsplash done with the same glass tile by a professional. Have used the fireplace many times and it has held up beautifully! Will definitely use this product again.
Perfect answer to putting up tile. We used around fireplace and just love it!!
This product is great for smaller size tiles. Pencil molding, chair rail and more. Great adhesion to tile, make sure tile is dry after cutting. And be sure to use a hair dryer or heat gun to remove moisture from tile or they won’t stay.
Used this to lay new tiles over existing ones around our fireplace. We used 6×6″ tiles that were about 1 pound each. It was pretty easy to reposition the tiles when we needed to, until that point you pressed them down. then it is fairly difficult to budge them (but that is the point of the matting, to hold them in place) It worked very well for our application but I can see how it might be difficult to get this matting set in place when its not a long, straight and equal size surface.
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 used this to tile a wall inside a small storage area. It made the project amazingly easy and neater than dealing with thinset would’ve been. Once you place the tile, you have a brief period of time where it can be repositioned. After that, it is secured firmly in place. After grouting the tile, you’d never know that it wasn’t placed with traditional materials. This product is a great option for small projects!
Wanted to update my mom’s old 70’s back splash. Went to Lowe’s to look for tile and found a great mosaic ~ only problem was I had never tiled before. Sales guy told me about Musselbound because it would be easier, save steps of figuring out mortar, and I wouldn’t have to take down the old laminate back splash. It was so easy to work with and by choosing a mosaic with a mesh on the back, I could cut most everything with scissors or a utility knife. Someone who has tiled before could have probably done it in one day, ~ took me two. Could grout as soon as tile was up. Great stuff!
I experimented and went with this and I am very pleased with how easy it was to install and work with doing my kitchen back splash. Would definitely recommend!
