[nagumuthu]

Hello Members,

I hope you had a good weekend.

Reaching out to you for suggestion on 'vinyl adhesive roll' (Figure 1) on Kitchen tiles.

Figure 1:

Figure 1

'Figure 2' shows area of 'Wall tiles' where above vinyl adhesive rolls are to be applied.

Figure 2:

I tried to stick 'vinyl adhesive roll' on Kitchen tiles. Observed 'Airbubbles' at some spots when applying 'vinyl roll' to tiles.

Looking for ways to apply 'vinyl roll' to Kitchen wall tiles perfectly without any airbubble. Are there any tools available from bunnings for the application. Moreover, I need to cut out areas (for switches, powerpoints) on the roll; Can you please propose any tools [ Is a knife sufficient (or) better tool is available] for cutting needs.

Looking forward hearing from you.

Best Wishes

M.Muthu.

Hello Mitchell,

Yes. You are right. We have selected the tiles during built and once every tiles is assembled, we thought our selection might have been better.

For us to get an idea of how the real work will be, any previous DIY works (on similar kind of Tiles replacement Project) please let us know. 

Best Wishes
