Unfortunately I allowed some adhesive to squeeze underneath the protective plastic of a brushed metal trim.
This looks to have etched the metal.
Would this polish out with T-Cut or similar?

I’m planning to use an L shaped trim for metro tiles with bevelled edge. Is it best to always have a cut edge agains the trim or doesn’t it matter? Just wondering because of the gap on the bevelled edge or will it not be noticeable as the adhesive will level it out a bit?
Thanks
