Re: tiling over backing paper. | | Andy, one of my first tilng jobs was to tile a kitchen that the customer had only painted about 1 week before I was to tile it. The customer told me it was ok to tile onto paint. I got a wet sponge and held it to the wall for about 90 seconds. The fresh paint turned back into soggy wet paint. Just imagine if I had tiled onto this surface. i.e. adhesive is wet.......and tiles are heavy. I spent a day sanding the paint off. The same would apply to backing paper. Cheers Sean |
