Default How to tile over painted walls


"David Nebenzahl" wrote in message

Any suggestions on how to tile a painted wall? It's in a kitchen, painted
in semi-gloss. How about if I just scratch up the wall surface really
well: can I then use thinset directly on the wall?

Replies from those with actual experience setting tile especially
appreciated.

I used mastic. My usual advice is go to a tile store. That is one where tile
is he only business. Tell them what you want to do and buy what they
recommend.
