Kitchen splashback using wallpaper

Rebecca Davey
vor 8 Jahren
zuletzt bearbeitet:vor 8 Jahren

Hi,
I am having a kitchen installed very soon that is in the same style as the picture. I had decided on a pressed metal splash back but have since discover wallpaper that looks exactly like pressed metal so thought I might use this and cover wallpaper with clear toughened glass thinking cleaning the splash back would be a whole lot easier with the glass finish instead of metal. My cabinet maker is concerned you will be able to see the silicon that attaches glass to wall and I wondered if anyone had used this for a splash back and had that problem, or any other problems. Thanks!

    Yes you can put wallpaper with toughened glass over the top. The silicone only needs to go around the fully perimeter so it won't be a problem. Have done this myself about 4 years ago (over VJ wall as I didn't want a splashback look) and still looks perfect. I imagine it wouldn't be that difficult to remove if you ever wanted to update the wallpaper for a change of look in the future and then reattach the glass...

      You can paint the back of glass and attach it ,look on pintrest for ideas and tutorials, then the adhesive doesn't show

      I personally don't feel wallpaper is up to the task! In a wet area you really need a tile , glass concrete or something a bit robust around water! There are so many options - but wallpaper shouldn't be one of them.

      I agree, wallpaper by itself shouldn't be used but I wouldnt think there would be a problem if covered with clear toughened glass.

      I think some people haven't read your request very clearly? Your asking if you can place glass over wall paper, not have wall paper on it's own? The show, House Rules on TV, had a few contestants do it. So yes look it up, as I'm sure it's been done a few times before and will look good. The glass will protect the wallpaper. Good Luck

      If you're worried about the silicon showing, an alternative could be to get the print of the wallpaper printed directly onto one side of the glass.

      See pics attached (not same print, but same idea) :)

      That's a great idea gioenne! Do you have any idea how I go about getting that done?

      I've found this pro who seems to do this exact thing in Sydney - you could try giving them a call and seeing if what you want is possible? Prints On Glass

      Thanks terri! I had a look and it can be amazing I think!! A great way to create a feature and introduce some texture to a kitchen! Although I do still love the pressed metal!! ;)

      Hi Rebecca, I installed powder coated pressed metal as my kitchen splashback (available in any colour), and it is ridiculously easy to clean. Being powder coated, it is also non porous, smooth and beautiful as a splashback. I can't wait to use it again.

      I love the idea of sprinted glass splashback, easy to clean... Also love love love your kitchen! It's similar to ours, we went encaustic tiles to break up all the white and to keep with the traditional look, once sealed, the tile have been really easy to keep clean...they come in so many different colours, patterns...here is a link http://www.jatanainteriors.com.au

      We wanted to do the same and no one here in Tassie would put the wallpaper behind the glass. Thankfully we were able to get a digital copy of the pattern and a sign writer was able to put it onto a sticky stencil and attach it to the glass...very happy with the result!

      We have installed wallpaper behind glass splash backs on many occasions without any problems, the glass usually being attached by a thin beading of clear silicon applied around the inside perimeter of he glass, then fitted the day after the wallpaper install. MOST importantly the INSIDE of the glass be kept perfectly clean on install as even fingerprints will stand out

      Pressed tin panels powder coated are non porous, but you are thinking of how cleaning the raised pattern will be to clean? Gliding, super easy, fantastic, beautiful, smooth......I could go on.

      A friend just installed the wallpaper you are talking about. It needed to be painted a strong colour in order for the pattern to show. She did it a warm metallic silver and it looks fantastic. Just wanted to let you know.

      It will be expensive and really hard to do.
      He’s right, you will see the silicone, as others have said you can get glass that’s printed with any pattern you Choose.

      Maybe just check what’s available at tiles expo, they have so many embossed or tiles that look like timber metal etc

      Make sure the glass is templated for a good snug fit then a fine beading of silicon all around will hold the glass in just make sure your wall paper has a good week to dry completely before installing the glass the great thing is if you want to change the wall paper at s later date the glass can be removed and popped up again
