In HomeDepot, I saw there are a variety of vinyl flooring tiles with
self-sticky adhesive on the back. We can just peel and press on. I wonder if
they are suitable for use on bathroom wall around vanity. It's hard for me
to DIY with ceramic tiles, but I think the vinyl tiles should be easy to
handle, a few 12x12 pieces can cover around vanity. Need some advice.
Thanks.
John

Best to glue them down anyway, in addition to the glue that is on
them.
I prefer to use a continuous sheet of vinyl in a bath area, because
water can get in the grooves between the tiles and cause them to curl
and fail.

Some you must use a roller on it ,or the warranty is voided, Read the
warranty, A roller breaks a 2 part epoxy glue to start working
