Default Peel and stick backsplash idea

So, I'm looking at my 3023, and wanting to do something for the interior, I am thinking about those peel and stick backsplashes. I have searched this site and on google but have not seen anything on this subject for the Trailmanor. Has any body done this. My question is would it be feasible to do this and not have any issues closing or opening with these things on the wall, I don't know how thick they are, and I believe they are a gel and not glass tile. Any input would be appreciated!! Thanks

Tex

Tex -

Are you describing a pre-formed one-piece backsplash, or a group of square tiles that you glue in place individually? Can you give us a link to a product you are considering?

Hi Bill, the ones that I am looking at are 10 inch tiles, they kinda look like a peel and stick floor tile but are very flexible and made out of gel, they look very thin from a video I have seen and you cut them with a scissor.
Here is the link:

And here is the video on this product:

Thanks for your assistance!! Tex

So with the idea in my head, I just had to try it out. It was very easy to put on, they stick very well. Only time will tell if they hold up in the RV. Here are some pictures of the walls.

Thanks LoveToCamp!! Yes, they are very thin, bendable and lightweight.

Nice. Did you get them at a big box store? Or a special order?

Thanks Dave! I got them from Lowe's, they sell in packs of six or individual, it took 3 packs to complete everything.

I love this idea! It looks great! How well is it adhering to the walls? And is it reasonably easy to wipe clean?
Looks like Home Depot sells this stuff too.
