Hi All,
I was thinking about either "self installing" or maybe hiring someone with experience with this material (I saw it on HGTV and it's a little more complicated than it appears to get the patterns lined up)
Anyways- I'd like to put it in my kitchen- it's an old cape, rather small and with fairly low ceilings so I'd probably not paint it and keep it shiny to maybe give the room the illusion of being larger (?) Anyone have this material in their home and have an opinion on how it wears with grease/moisture, etc that one finds in a kitchen over time????
I considered it for the very small bathroom too but again nervous it'd rust or warp with all the moisture...
Any thoughts are appreciated.
