Question 1

can this be used as wallpaper and removed easily from drywall?

Accepted Answer

Not really. It's easily removed, but probably best on a solid surface. On acrylic paint on drywall it may come off easily. It may also peel the paint.

Question 2

Would this product be sufficient for a kitchen backsplash?

Accepted Answer

I put mine in the backsplash area and it works fine. I live alone and don't have a lot of wear and tear on that area as I'm careful with the water splashing. It seems to be holding up fine after almost a year. It is a nice quality and I think it works well.

Question 3

I want to use this on a countertop by my sink.  If I do so and need to clean it/wipe it off, will it get ruined?

Accepted Answer

If you only wipe this contact paper with water or a very mild detergent, it should be ok. But it is a very thin flexible substance. If you use something abrasive, it will get ruined for sure. Just as Lilana said, I would not use it on a countertop near a sink because it is not very durable. It does adhere better than wall paper - but her words "BIG sticker" is an appropriate description.  If you drop a knife, blade down, it may cut right through. I used it on a granddaughter's doll house to give the appearance of hard-wood flooring.

Question 4

Can this really be use as flooring, anyone used this on their motorhome or RV floor?

Accepted Answer

YES! I covered my entire kitchen floor with this to cover the funky tiles. I have 5 kids so very heavy traffic in the kitchen. Things were spilled and cleaned. And it was beautiful. When I left the house and took it up, it left a bit of a residue on the floor. Butit wasn't so bad. Looked awesome and no one thought it was contact paper. What I did though was I cut the contact paper so it was like plank size and I staggered it so it looked more realistic. I'm actually thinking about doing an accent wall in my boys room wirh this now. Great stuff!
