Guide Glass Tip
With so many do-it-on-your-owners, it's amazing more people don't put together a glass splashback for their kitchen or bathroom. Prep is easy and minimal and the options are endless. To keep it simple, homeowners should stick to the area directly behind the stove or faucet so that the design and manufacture of the glass is functional first, but not overwhelming to put together.
For Starters
What will it be? Stainless steel in the kitchen and a mosaic in the bathroom? Wait, wait, maybe it's black colored glass bordered by stainless steel in the kitchen and small ceramic tile in the bathroom? Or, wait, what about just a small glazed earth tone in the kitchen and the same in the bathroom? When designing and building a glass splashback it's important to remember that the function of such a project is to protect the wall behind the stove or sink. For first-timers, it's recommended to stick to just that area. That way, the glass design will be manageable and there is less chance it will crack or break in the adhesive process.
A Two Step Process
- Step One: Prep. Clean the wall. If you are attaching a colored glass splashback that is painted on the back the wall doesn't need to be painted before attaching. However, if the glass is kiln-fired or tinged it's important to spackle and paint the wall in a neutral color first.
- Step Two: Adhesive. Apply silicone adhesive and lot's of it. Apply the adhesive about every six inches apart the size of a golf ball. Position the splashback and run a bead of silicon around the entire glass border.
After the glass splashback has been applied, allow 24 hours for it to dry. Clean-up should be relatively simple (really all that's left is a quick wipe down of the wall and counters). Although it's a major change in either room, as you can see it's very simple to do and it will provide both functionality and modernize at the same time.
