Hey Chris!
I didn’t coat it with poly because I chose a high gloss paint. Plus I don’t think backsplashes take much wear besides washing. It’s actually been three years now since I did this and it has held up great!
Thanks for your comment!
Melissa

I really want to try this. Did you top coat it with anything…like polyurethane? Thanks!

Many cities have a recycling center for hazardous materials like paint. You bring leftover paint there and others can pick up the paint if they have a use for it — for free! It’s called a household hazardous waste facility, you should look if your area has one!

I just wanted a subtle difference which the matte vs gloss paint gives. I think it would look potentially even more realistic if you went with a full color tile so the grout really showed up!

Think I would use a pale color so the grout lines could be seen better.

Never thought of painting a backsplash but I love that it’s cheap. We just bought a house in MN so I love all the DIY/remodel ideas for not so expensive.. thank you.
