Tiling on wood wall.
I was shopping for tile at a large tile store and started conversing with a very nice diyer who was said you can t tile on wood.
I have installed concrete backer board hardiebacker on all the shower walls and floors of a bathroom i am tiling.
Interior if you are working in an interior setting in a dry area where the tile will never come into contact with water you can install the tile directly onto the face of the plywood so long as you use the proper type of thinset.
2 coats and let it dry.
I was wondering if tile will stick on wood.
Glue called mastic is the least expensive method for installing tiles.
Starting in a top corner spread tile mortar with a notched trowel over small sections at a time then attach tiles to the backer board using tile spacers between each one.

As such while tiling directly over wood of any kind is generally frowned upon in the tile industry you can tile over a wood paneled wall as long as the proper adhesives are used because the movement is negligible.
Improper removal preparation of lead paint can cause toxins to spread throughout your home.
Mastic adheres the tile directly to a wooden sub floor to a wooden back splash or onto a piece of plywood.
For wall installations your real concerns are whether you want to use thinset directly on the wood and whether you are using an exterior or interior type of plywood.
While often times it is said that you should not try tiling over wood paneling there are many ways to avoid typical problems associated with doing so either by using membranes or altering the tile size and weight.
You should not tile over wallpaper glossy surfaces lead paint or plywood.
If your paint tests positive call a professional.
