Why Faux Tin Backsplash is Better Than Ceramic Tiles
The wall areas surrounding basins and sinks in our homes need protection from water droplets and splashes. Often these areas are protected by ceramic tiles. The main problems with using ceramic tiles for backsplashes is that the tile grout easily mildews because of water that hits the tiles. This means extra work to scrub out the mildew and trying to keep it from coming back. An accidental bump can crack plain tiles and their replacement is both messy and expensive IF you can find tiles to match. The weight of ceramic tiles on a wall limits their uses to only structural walls, you don’t want to try to mount ceramic tiles to a lightweight backsplash area such as you might have in a home bar or behind a garden’s planting bench.
Faux Tin PVC backsplash material is made for do-it-yourself projects and is available in these gorgeous metallic look colors, designs and textures to go anywhere you need water protection. The big 2 ft. x 25 ft. roll is big enough to use for several projects – and we are sure any do-it-yourselfer will find dozens of additional applications around the home and garage.
