  • wall panel (acrylic)
  • wall linoleum
  • mirror
  • wallpaper

It is not recommended to install self-adhesive tiles on the following surfaces:

  • porous wood
  • relief ceramic tiles
  • textured wallpaper
  • unpainted gib
  • inside shower
  • floors
  • bench tops
  • ceilings
  • brick

Save time and order from our carefully selected tools.

If you are installing the tiles behind a gas hob without a back control panel we strongly recommend to install our Smart Panel first. You may also want to complete your tiling project with a thin Smart Edge border.

If you would like to know more about these tiles we recommend that you read our FAQs and check out our installation tutorials.

Watch this short video for more details about the tiles and how to install them.

Application

This is how you install the self-adhesive tiles. Make sure that you follow all the instructions carefully:

  1. Cleaning: Wash the surface with a powerful grease-remover such as sugar soap. Make sure you allow enough time for the surface to dry properly.
  2. Guideline: using a level or chalk line, trace a guideline to ensure perfect alignment using a tile sheet to mark the height of your guideline on the lowest side of the bench top
  3. Measuring & Cutting: use a utility knife and a metal ruler to trim and shape your tiles around electrical outlets or other irregularities. Measure and mark your tiles and then lay it on a cutting mat to cut off the unwanted portion.
  4. Peel: Fold back half of the protective paper in the back without touching the adhesive portion with your fingers. We strongly recommend you wash your hands before you start the installation to ensure no dust particles or greasy residue are transferred to the adhesive.
  5. Align & Stick: Now align the adhesive portion with your guideline and apply a light pressure. This will allow you to validate the positioning of your tiles. Once you are satisfied with it's placement and alignment, you may remove the rest of the protective paper and apply a firm pressure across the entire surface.
  6. Overlapping: Once you've successfully installed the first sheet of tiles, you may continue the process making sure you overlap all the grout lines as you go. This will result in a continious and even layout of the entire project.

Maintenance

Smart Tiles® will stick on your walls for as long as you wish them to. That's our guarantee! We offer replacement of defective Smart Tiles following file investigation and depending on certain conditions. Smart Tiles® also guarantee the products for a period of thirty (30) days starting from the date of purchase and applies only to design or manufacture defects, excluding any hue or colour change and labour expenses. For the warranty to be valid, the manufacturer installation recommendations must be followed.

  • Wait a period of three weeks before affixing Smart Tiles on a freshly painted wall to allow the paint to penetrate and dry thoroughly.
  • The surface must be smooth and undamaged.
  • The surface must be clean and dry.
  • You should clean the surface with a degreaser such as sugar soap.
  • During installation, the ambient temperature must be at least 18°C and should not exceed 35°C.
  • Smart Tiles should not be exposed to direct steam, or be in direct contact with a heat source and should not be submerged in water (do not install in the shower).
  • To install behind a gas range without a protective rear panel, allow a height of 20 centimetres above the surface to prevent the tiles from coming in contact with open flame and we recommend installing our Smart Panel. If there is a wall to the right or left side of the range, Smart Tiles must be installed at least six centimetres away.
  • Keep a distance of at least six centimetres between an oven toaster grill and wall covered with Smart Tiles.
  • If you decide to remove the Smart Tiles once they have been firmly applied, they cannot be reused.
  • Smart Tiles are not designed to cover floors, countertops or work surfaces, or to serve as a trivet.
  • For maintenance, you should only use a mild non-abrasive product.

Avoid cleaning products containing bleach. Avoid food with strong colouring like turmeric and curry spices, grinded coffee, food colouring and tomato sauce as they may stain the surface

Sample Kit Kitchen Sicile Tiles

beautiful, substantial tiles

Our kitchen had a lime green (glass) backsplash in our new home, which we replaced with these tiles. The tiles are substantial thickness, so they do look like real tiles when in place. Sticking the first sheet on was a fiasco (we removed the whole backing and the sheet stuck everywhere with air bubbles and once we pressed down hard on the tiles to push out the bubbles, it was impossible to move the tiles), but I managed to unstick the tiles by warming up the glue with a hairdryer (as in one of the tutorials) and replaced the backing paper. After that I only peeled off a few cm at the edge, which I folded back flat, placed the sheet to line up properly and smoothed down the strip without the backing. Once the starting point was in place and correct, I gradually peeled off the backing and smoothed the tiles as I went along. This worked a treat! Measurements were tricky as the cabinets on either side of the extractor fan are not fixed at exactly the same height (a few mm difference) and we had some sockets to create cutouts for (worth taking off the socket cover when applying the tiles, so when the cover is clicked back in place, the edges of the cutouts don't show). We also needed to attach a Smart Panel first (we have a gas hob), which is a different height than the tiles, so my husband did a lot of meticulous measuring and cutting, but we got there in the end. It took about six hours but well worth the effort! I got three packets of sheets (12 sheets in all) and we used 9 sheets and one tile. This is an amazing product that looks like real tiles and it has transformed our kitchen! Very happy!
