U would have to scrape off or try adhesive backdplash over tile
Hello, I'm interpreting your question as to how you can use kitchen tiles (perhaps used for a floor) and use it as a backsplash. If so, I suggest cutting the tiles into uniform pieces (you can get a simple tile cutter at a big box store at a very reasonable price). I would suggest a subway tile as it is easy to cut straight and would be a simple cut. From there, you could either use the newly cut, small tiles as your back splash. Or, you can use the newly cut tiles and paint them for a contrast to the floor (assuming it is all in the same room). Below is a link of different patterns of how to apply the newly cut tiles. I like herringbone, but it takes more time and supplies than the other ones. Post some before and after pictures-we'd love to see them. Good luck!
