I'm planning to redo my kitchen counters and wasn't very enthused about it. Then I looked at some backlit Onyx panels and wondered if I could flip it. I'm handy at electrical and I've worked out how to run dimmable LED strips and arrays of 10mm LED's. I was thinking about building the underlayment of some sort of marine plywood and hiding all the electronics in it. I'm even trying to come up with ways to remove some from below and some from the side if they die. I have a few sample Onyx tiles and they have a nice glow with LED's below. If I use a cement I lose it all since cement is opaque. I know some glues dry translucent. Gorilla advertises an epoxy glue that drys clear but it comes in little tubes and I'd go broke doing 140 sq feet of tile. Has anybody used or know of any products that could glue tile and stay fairly clear? Steve

Need to insulate behind a tile shower. Might rip off the exterior siding and go from there but would rather rip the tile off and insulate from there because the tile might be leaking also. And then I want to put a panel thing up. It's probably a standard sized tub and shower. I know they have kits but I think the tub is staying so I don't know if the kit would make the right connection with the old tub. Also, the ceiling is tile and only about 7 feet tall so I don't know if the wall kit will join the ceiling the right way. I think they might be designed to install drywall/tile over the top edge of the wall and then that tile/drywall is what goes into the top ceiling corner. So is there something I can get from lowes or home depot that I can just cut to size, glue to the studs, and then caulk all the joints after taking the three tile walls off? TY
