FloorPops FP2480 Comet Peel & Stick Floor Tiles, Black

I’ve never laid flooring before and though I never stray away from a home improvement project, I honestly had little expectations with it being sticky tiles, as well as my ability. BUT WOW!!! I am so happy I went for it. I originally planned to just do my laundry room floor where my pig resides, but I kept going because I was so impressed with how easy it is to install and how great it looked. I did a total of four adjoining rooms. My pig’s room was down to the sub-flooring, the other three rooms I laid over lament, and as a side note, the rooms transition nicely. I did use a divider between the rooms laid over lament and my pigs’ room. The more I installed the more I learned... I recommend using an additional spray adhesive. I used the orange bottle (I believe gorilla glue) and it makes a world of difference with the hold (and with a pig and dogs I wanted to make certain it wasn’t going to come up.) The longer you wait after spraying the backs of the tiles and the floor, the stronger the grab is. So make sure you line your two edges before pressing down, cause once it’s down, it’s down. The pattern is amazingly forgiving. My home is over 100 years old. Nothing is level or square. I was so worried when the pattern was slightly off but not off enough to try to cut (I’m horrible at cutting, but that may be because I only had a steak knife). When you are up close installing it, you think the slight imperfections in the pattern are going to ruin the whole project, but don’t stress, once done you won’t be able to notice. I even went back looking over the specific areas, and couldn’t identify them. If you line up the edges of the tile and bend into place (the size you need) then bend the opposite direction, the tile makes a clean break, no cutting needed. I learned to leave the backing on and bend into place vs laying the tile and attempting to cut the excess. The trickiest area being around the toilet. You’ll want to order extras for mess ups and well I’m certain you’ll find other areas to spruce up and install (closets or whatever). Once done, you’ll discover occasional spots where the glue from the backing made its way to the front of the tile. I spent a lot of unnecessary time scrubbing- rough sponge, dry eraser, etc... then I discovered if you put some oil on a paper towel, it comes right up (no scrubbing necessary). I was so angry, but relieved when I discovered this. I’ve attached pictures, so judge for yourself the appearance of my rookiness, but I can say, if you use the spray adhesive (just a light dusting on both surfaces nothing too extensive) this floor is amazingly sturdy. My pig roots at the flooring, which is why his room had only sub flooring, and the tile in his room is withstanding his big snout and hooves so far... but honestly I’m not even worried because if a tile gets damaged, I’ll just replace it. He also frequently spills his water and the water just sits on top, and hasn’t impacted the hold even slightly. One last perk, I had a solid color flooring (it was 30 years old and hideous) but I thought I would be cleaning this new floor more often, but I’m actually cleaning less! It somehow hides the day to day dirt, pet hair, etc... much better! I had to adjust to having pattern, but it totally brightened and transformed the spaces. I couldn’t be happier!! I did not notice any variations in pattern from box to box either, and I had 33 boxes!!! I went through 6 cans of adhesive.

Absolutely love these! I did a lot of research on different brands and these were the best choice w decent price. I am renting, and the bathroom tiles were in bad shape. I wanted something durable, easy to use, inexpensive, and potentially removable. I bought 3 packs to cover my small bathroom- this left me wiggle room in case I messed up a few (which I did.) I laid them all out first to see where it’d be easiest to start. I chose to start along my vanity, bc I wanted those to be the straightest since I felt like that’s where people would be seeing them most. I made sure to rotate the tiles and line them up where the pattern was cohesive. They don’t all like up perfectly, but pretty close and unless I pointed it out- a naked eye wouldn’t notice. I made a “template” of weird corners and around my toilet, drew/measured that on the backing of the tile, and then cut w sharp scissors. They are easy to cut- so it took me no time. I made sure the floor was super clean w bleach and swept and dusted multiple times before starting. I used my blow dryer and heated each sticky side of tile before pressing firmly in place. There were a couple that I measured wrong, or cut at the wrong angle. I was able to pull them off the floor pretty easily- but none have moved since I put them down. They’ve been on for a couple weeks- with two messy little boys who come in w sticky fingers, splash around in the tub, and are still working on their aim at the toilet ;) these have held up great and I’ve had zero problems. They look great, so easy to put in (took me 1.5 hours!) and clean even more easily than the tile underneath. I’m in love. Such an awesome product!! Also! I originally bought 2 packs of ten, and after laying them out decided to buy 1 more. Every pack was consistent w color and pattern and size- which is what I was concerned about and some other products I’ve heard that was an issue!

When your order arrives, I would definitely open all boxes and inspect your tiles. My first order, all 3 boxes had random bright pink stains. Once returned and new shipment arrived, Installation was easy, however, the pattern on these tiles can be difficult to match up, and planning ahead by opening, inspecting and sorting all tiles was worth the extra time involved. With the pattern on the tile and how they are cut in manufacturing, there are definite variations of the tile pattern even when you receive the same lot for all boxes. I separated the tiles into 3 piles. Pile one were almost perfect (smallest pile), Pile two, 3 sides would match up (great edge pieces), and the third pile where only 2 sides would work. The almost perfect where obviously the ones that I used for the first four center tiles on the floor and for areas that wouldn't be covered up with a throw rug. After that, installation went smoothly. The tiles were easy to cut. I typically scored with a utility knife then used a good pair of scissors which made cutting easier. The adhesive on these tiles is ok. Some tiles were fine however, there were others that I had to use tile tape to get to stick well. I found via a YouTube video, a tile and carpet tape called Home Easy, purchased at Lowes for ~$9.00, which worked great to get the stubborn tiles to stick. Once the room was completed the floor looked great! The imperfections on the tile edges did blend in and unless you look closely, you don't notice, but am still glad that I did up front sorting to minimize this. Overall, I was happy with the product and would purchase again.

A little hard to work with because when you touch it to the floor it better be in the right spot because it does stick! The only complaint is that a few of the tile patterns weren't printed exactly right on the tile and so they didn't line up and I couldn't use them. I bought 5 boxes and I'd say 1 in each box was off. Overall, pretty and a fair price. I have had it down a few weeks and so far so good.

This is a great product for the price! It’s a bit of a pain to have to make sure they’re all arranged in a certain order so that the patterns match up properly, but I still think it’s worth it for the very reasonable price and quality of the product! The look, texture, ease of application, and colors are all exactly as I expected. They worked out perfectly for my project!

I'm not new to using peel and stick tile. I've used them for years in older homes that need a cosmetic upgrade but budget friendly. I found these tiles while watching diy bathroom renovations. And even though I've used tiles like these before I did learn a couple new things that made the job much easier and I'd like to share them with you. First there are many reviews saying they don't match up well. Instructions on the back say to rotate them till they match. Surprisingly that worked. I usually buy tiles that don't need to be matched so this was a little more challenging but so worth it. Even though the tile has a sticky back I always use an extra glue. I like Locktite 0 second. I used 1 tube in a caulk gun for my small bathroom. I will also caulk around the walls, toilet and in between each tile. I bought a white caulk that is made for bathrooms. In my photo I have not caulked yet. Tip #1 use kitchen shears to trim the tiles instead of exacto knife or box cutter. The tile are thin enough to cut with heavy duty scissors and I felt I had more control of the cut. Especially in tricky cuts around a curvy toilet. Tip #2 When you need to cut the tile to fit an area, around a toilet or butting against the wall, use the paper that comes off the back of the tile as your template. Lay it down and mark on the paper where to make your cuts. Trim the paper and check to see if it fits. Now use that paper to cut your tile. I suggest you cut a little larger than the template cause you can take more off if you need to but if you cut too much you've wasted a tile. (not really, use it in another spot that needs a trimmed tile.) This is where the shears really come in handy because you can barely trim the tile and see if it fits, if not you can see where you need to trim again. I suggest watching a couple of YouTube videos but this is a pretty easy project anyone can do. I later mine over ceramic tile I didn't like. One day we will gut the bathroom but for now this makes me happy.

From a farther away picture these look doable but up close as you install them very cheap feel. As I was putting them down they were already getting marked up, dirty and scratched. Like an idiot I listened to the other reviews and used spray adhesive as well as the stick backing and half way through pulled them up before they got really stuck on there Spent an hour cleaning the adhesive off my floor. Just overall felt cheap and didn’t look classy in person. Should have expected from the price.
