Mosaics can be applied over metal, alloy, glass, stone, drywall, plaster, tile, wood or any other non-rigid, non-oleaginous (without oil) surface. Painted surfaces where paint is peeling or otherwise coming off must be repaired prior to installation of peel & stick mosaics. The surface should be uniform and stable before applying mosaic.
