Before you begin
Installing Aspect peel & stick stone tiles is a simple, exciting project that adds instant
style to your kitchen or bath. We have deliberately over-explained the tile installation.
Have fun with this project. It’s going to be easy and look great!
Method 1: The adhesive on the back side of
the Aspect stone tiles is engineered to stick to
flat, primed, smooth walls.
Allow the tiles and substrate to come to room
temperature (65 to100 degrees F.) before
installation. Use a heat gun or other source to
warm the tiles and substrate if necessary.
If you are using installation Method 1, proper
wall preparation is required. Aspect can be
installed over most structurally sound substrates
if they are clean, at, smooth, dry, and free of
dust, wax, soap scum and grease. Acceptable
substrates are drywall, plaster or clean, smooth tile (glazed, porcelain type tile;
not porous or textured). Any damaged, loose or uneven areas must be repaired,
patched, leveled and primed. Fill cracks and irregularities with wallboard compound
or spackling, then sand smooth with ne-grade sandpaper.

Due to the natural variance of real
stone, we cannot guarantee an exact
color or texture match from lot to
lot. Prior to adhering Aspect tiles to
your wall, please unpackage & lay
out all purchased product to ensure
color and texture consistency. If you
encounter unreasonable variation,
please give us a call at 1-800-434-
3750 (7am-4:30pm CST, M-F) so that
we may assist you with your project.
