For the tile over tile can you use mosaic tile or does it have to be ceramic?

Thank you this is exactly what I was looking for. I was going to tile a thin sub board and glue it up but you just solved everything. Old school dad was trying to get me to pull off the existing tile because that was the correct way. OMG welcome "new products" . Already looked on Lowes and this product is around $32.00 for a gallon. You have the gift of gab so explaining was amazing.

[@jannibal9273]

I've been sitting on a beautiful new tile backsplash for 3 years now because of the cost of hiring somebody to do it for me. I thought the old tile would have to be removed, etc. and all that goes with it. Now I think I can do this by myself, just following what you did, and finally get that new backsplash installed!

[@paperlady1949]

There are places on the bucket lid to make 1/4-1/2” cuts.This allows the lid to slide over the lip on the bucket. Ive hung wallpaper for 43 years, and it took me a long time to finally figured out what those places on the lid were for. I love your videos and have watched quite a few. When I prepped for wallpaper, I had to float walls and fix joints. I wasn’t very fast but I learned a lot watching the videos. Now I’m going to tape and float my sons kitchen. Thanks again!

Sir, thank you so much for this video. That Eco Prime Grip saved me so much trouble with a job. I would've never had the trust in just priming a wall to hold the new tile. That stuff really does work. Thanks again.

[@maximaniac7231]

This man knows what he's doing. I learned from a tile man (brother-in-law) exactly how they really do a tile job whether it's flooring, showers, or back splashes and from what I see on this video and Jeff's other videos they most closely match what I learned from him. Right down to using an angle grinder with a diamond blade to make smaller cuts and using a cheap tile scoring cutter for the larger cuts.

This video is such good news!

[@BethM0710]

OMG 😲 So I am having a house built, my first home! It was going to cost me extra money (of course) to get the backsplash that I wanted, so I decided to stick with the same tile I am getting in the floor which is a 16x16 tile... on the backsplash 😖 I was planning to move in and immediately tear it out and put up what I want, THIS RIGHT HERE is gonna save not only my money but my sanity!!!! Thank you sooo much!

Jeff, you can open that can top easier by cutting the slots on the cover with a blade, then it's easy to remove the top..Same for paint buckets, removing the tops..they also have a special tool with a hook, that grabs the cover after you cut the slots and pulls it up easily :)..You are doing a great job :) !!

[@joelozano8082]

People look at me as if I was crazy when I told them that I was installing my new Mosiac Tile over the existing tile. Regardless of what opinions I was hearing I went ahead and bought the Eco Prime Grip and tried your method, and let me tell you, it worked out GREAT! The EPG really does stick to non-porous material and adhesive mortar by Mapei bonded to it great as well. Really happy about the results. Thanks for taking the time in teaching us on how to do the almost impossible. P.S. I also left the power on, yikes lol!

[@sandydaley1594]

Hello Joe, what tile was originally on the wall? I put on marble mosaic with the incorrect mortar and grout and it totally changed the tile. (DISTORTED, MULTILATED, DISCOLOURED, CORRUPTED) so now I want to put the same tile over it with improve mortar and grout. I'm worried it will be too thick, but after 10 months of looking for tile, this tile goes really well with my refaced cupboards and new laminate countertop so I would love to keep this. Maybe I should take it all out and redo? Do you think subway tile would be a better choice over the marble mosaic? Would greatly appreciate hearing from you. I am still waiting to hear from Jeff too.

[@robohead521]

[@gabhandebrun1871]

StarrTile Over a floor is one thing but a tile on a backsplash is much safer if the tile your going over is flat not loose and with primer etc.. plus there is zero foot traffic on the area obviously... not like a floor which I’ve tiled over meself before and i think You have a video we’re you tiled over floor tile aswell if I’m not mistaken.. all depend on the job an circumstances of the underneath tile etc.. I like some of yr vids buddy and your honesty in critiquing yr own bathroom which would do my head in with some of the decisions you made but something tells me you got most of them materials FREE.. and used what you had.. available...😉👍

This is the project I've been putting off for so long. My kitchen has a tile backsplash that got out of control. Some needs to be removed and I am worried about replacing drywall, but now I know that tiling over tile is a thing and I can do this! I need new kitchen counter top first, and hoping the tile doesn't need to come off first. But this is a real relief knowing the backsplash can be done this way. Thanks!

Hi Mary, most counters can be removed without affecting the backsplash if you leave a small gap under the tile. Cheers!

[@edswift4124]

I was a professional house painter for 49 yrs. And though I didn't like getting roped into all around handyman style jobs, I would occasionally let my guard down and say yes to things outside of my usual realm of services offered. Kind of depended on just how much there was to it. I only did a few small tile jobs in my day, and so can't say I'm knowledgeable in the field. I do however appreciate just how cool that primer you used to get the new tile to bond was, and i really also liked that mastic, you're right, it's thick and yet has an open time which keeps it from setting too quickly! There's nothing like a little wiggle room that you get from a forgiving product that allows room for mistakes or just playing around with it until you've got it exactly like you like it. The glue gun is also a nice touch for quick and and easy installation of your aluminum trim! Overall, a very smooth and slick job, altogether!looked good and I enjoyed learning about the new technology, as you put it! Keep 'em coming.

[@chrisgraham2904]

My existing back-splash is sheet arborite or formica (same as and matched the old counters) which is very well adhered to a plaster & lathe wall. Probably installed in the late 60's. The formica sheet even extends under the upper cabinets, so I'd have to start by cutting it out with a multi-tool. Plaster & lathe removal is much nastier than drywall removal and then I'd have to deal with the thickness differences to install new drywall. Until now, that's why I have never replaced it. Would the MAPEI Eco Prim Grip work as well over the formica for a back-splash tile similar to yours?

And it’s worked perfectly- Just like he said we can rely on technology now more than technique. When I started I had no one to turn to to ask if this would actually work or if the tiles would just slip off the mirror. But I also knew I couldn’t smash the mirror and rip it out before I applied tile because… Glass shards everywhere!!! Anyway I’m happy to say it’s gorgeous and it’s held up fine and it hasn’t slipped at all and it’s a great improvement - thanks for this video!! I wish I had that primer tip, but it was fine.

Unless one of your other subscribers has a better answer, and I know you contractors always have great ideas for these things, I will gladly order one for you. Like always, I learned a lot from you, Jeff. You know, it's not just what I'm learning, it's also that you have an enjoyable personality. Thank you! Max, you're getting so good at these videos.

Yes, I've noticed all that brute strength you've been displaying lately. I'm impressed!!!! I'd be even more impressed if I knew you had health insurance! ;-) I've also noticed some of your subs telling you to do this and that about the lid. What about those times when you need to re-seal the bucket? My lid opener came from Augason Farms. It's $9.99. But it's bigger and more sturdy than the others I've seen on the web. Get it. Consider it another useful tool. Besides, every time you use it, you can think about me trying to save you from a self induced heart attack. (Notice how polite I'm being? Not once have I called you an old fart. I haven't forgotten that you called me the matriarch of the family!)

The kitchen flooring is laminate or vinyl with tears, it’s outdated & ugly... What is an affordable way to update it? 4.
