Stainless
steel backsplash panels are 18.5" wide to fit between the
countertops and cupboards. Tin panels, which come in 2' x 4',
are also available for kitchen backsplashes. You can cut these
panels to fit your desired size.
Each tin backsplash is available in unfinished steel (tin finish)
prepainted white, and plated copper, brass, or chrome. If you
choose to go with an unfinished steel backsplash panel, it must
be painted with oil base paint. For clear finishes, we recommend
polyurethane, specifically the exterior grade (oil base) of polyurethane
because it withstands more rigorous weather conditions and has
a better quality than the interior grade. Additionally, some manufacturers
have a UV inhibitor in their exterior grade, which retards the
yellowing effect that occurs over time on white and clear coatings.
