Can I install self-stick tile over a Formica backsplash?

The counter top runs up the wall to create the backsplash as well. I would rather not cut the Formica at all.

Hi Bryn, I'm hoping this video will show you how to add self stick tiles over your formica backsplash - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yzt6c0oWT3A
Yes! I have done it. Works very well. Make sure you clean the area throughly before you begin.
You sure can. If the laminate is on the whole backsplash clean it well and apply the tiles. If the laminate backsplash only goes about four inches up the wall tile above it.
The only thing I would probably do is to rough up your old formica backsplash with sand paper a little before attaching your new backsplash. That should help it hold on better and last longer!
Hi Bryn, Here is a video that shows how to prep wall for peel and stick tiles, it will like be the same for sticking them over formica, hope this helps,
