Thank you for your kind word. Thanks for watching.

Looks great, I’ve never actually laid glass tile before, and I didn’t know you needed a wet saw to cut it. Great tips 🤙🏼

I hope it helped, thanks for visiting.

Nice video. Wish you showed how you did the corner. Also, looks like you sat the tile on the counter and still managed to get a bit of a grout line between the countertop and tile. Ive seen some videos where they use spacers.

Great job I liked it

It’s really pretty easy, give it a try I’m sure you’ll do great 👍

Great job it looks perfect! I'm about to install the exact same glass mosaic but have consulted a few sources that say for best results to use a thinset mortar made specifically for glass tile. Does it really make a difference?

Thank you, honestly no, on a kitchen backsplash you will be fine with using mastic

Looks good in new house with all plumb walls. The angles and measurements (corners) will be the problem

True, this is not a new house though, it’s 47 years old. There was a fire and it had to be gutted and re drywalled Thanks for watching

What type / brand of grout did you use? I'm assuming unsanded so as not to scratch glass?

@DIYBuilt

Ай бұрын

Yes unsanded Prism made by Custom

Do you know the name/style of the tile used?

@DIYBuilt

I believe it was mosaic grey white from Mona Serra collection, I think it was purchased at the Home Depot

What if my backsplash is mirror right now, can I stick mosaic to the mirror?

@DIYBuilt

Ай бұрын

You should try to remove the mirror if possible howerever you might be able to use a bonding primer over the mirror first. You would have to check with the manufacturer of the primer first. I have a video on my channel called “how to tile over tile “ You could watch that video to see which primer I used. Thanks for watching

Its a bit fast and what do you do if you have no wet saw

@DIYBuilt

6 ай бұрын

Sorry it was a bit fast. If you have the ability to rent a wet saw, would be an option. I wouldn’t suggest starting a glass tile project without one.
