How can you tile a granite backsplash?
I have a granite counter and backsplash which is very dark. I would like to add more light into the kitchen by changing the backsplash but it has granite top to bottom. It looks quite difficult to remove.

Hi Grisel, for something a bit less labor intensive you could consider going over your backsplash with new tile or they make really really nice looking peal and stick backsplash tile now.

It's just glue to the wall with construction adhesive. It can be pried off bet the would probably be damage to the wall.
The surface of the granite would need to be roughed up. Then a bonding primer over the granite.
