Redo your bathroom without breaking the tiles: the art of transformation with adhesive films

August 30, 2024

Prepare the surface to be decorated

Before you start renovating your bathroom, it's essential to prepare the surface to be touched up. The idea is to cover the old tiles with a realistic adhesive film that will give the room a more modern design.

To do this, first clean the tiles you wish to hide with a detergent to remove dust, splashes, grease and other dirt. Allow the surface to dry thoroughly and check for any irregularities or defects.

Choose the new design

If you want to redo your bathroom without breaking the tiles, then you first need to select the new design. There are a multitude of decorative wall films that can replace your tiles.

Choose according to your taste and the style of your bathroom. If you want to stick with tiled walls, select an imitation ceramic tile film. This will enable you to change your tiles without having to carry out extensive work.

If, on the other hand, you'd like to completely transform the look of the room, Cover Styl offers imitation stone, concrete, wood, granite... And why not treat yourself to a marble bathroom without breaking the bank (or your old tiles)?

Take the measurements

Once you've selected your new wall film, measure the surface to be covered. Transfer these measurements to your film and leave a 5 cm margin on each side before applying the adhesive vinyl to the tiles. Cut the film to size.

Apply gently

For optimum, long-lasting results, gently apply the film to the tiles. Smooth with a squeegee to avoid air bubbles. Once the covering is firmly in place, use a cutter to remove excess film from the edges, and you're done!

Maintain your bathroom walls on a daily basis

One of the biggest advantages of self-adhesive film is its practicality and ease of maintenance.

Indeed, Cover Styl films are waterproof and perfectly resistant to humidity and mildew formation. This makes them ideal for use in damp rooms such as bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms and WCs.

Maintenance is simple: a damp cloth is all you need to remove dust, splashes and dirt. Avoid corrosive products, however, and don't rub with the green side of the sponge. This will permanently damage the film's pattern and texture.
