Using a Tile grid
Using a tile grid can be a fun and inexpensive way to create your own
beautiful designer custom sheeted patterns. Follow the easy
instructions below an let the fun begin! When your done send us
your pics. We'd love to see what you created!
|
 |
Step 1: Develop your design and place tiles in the
grid right side
up.
|
 |
Step 2: Apply the ClearView mounting sheets by removing the
backing from the sheet and lining
the edge up with the
edge tile. Sticky side
down.
(This process can be made easier with 2 people
holding taut by the corners and applying all at one time)
|
|
|
Step 3: Once you have the edges
lined up begin rolling the adhesive across the entire sheet
|
 |
Step 4: Smooth firmly as you go.
|
|
 |
Step 5: Rub firmly across the entire sheet to ensure that all of
the tiles are firmly attached.
|
 |
Step 6: Flip the entire
grid over on to your worksurface. Bend the
grid upwards to release the tile sheet.
If your
grid is new you may have a few tiles that don't want to release
from the
grid. Simply roll the grid back and pop them in place.

 |
Step 7: You now have 1 sq. ft of perfectly sheeted tiles just like the
pros. You can cut into strips to make borders, etc. If you have a design that needs to
be lined up, number your sheets left to right, top to bottom to make
installation easier.
|
|
Apply adhesive to your surface, 1 - 4 sq. ft. at a time. Apply one sheet at a time to your
surface, making sure your grout lines are lined up.
Once the adhesive has cured and the tile is firmly attached
(usually 24 hrs.) gently peel away the mosaic mounting sheet and your are
ready to grout! |
|
The same process can be used with the
glass tile grid. Eliminate Step 6 and just peel/lift out
your sheet
