3 way help please

[gobby]

You mean Genesis plastic trims I'm assuming. Hmm, maybe the trade 10 pack of Homelux I got are a different profile to the other Homelux single sold trims, I picked this packet up with a Tradepoint card from local B&Q so I had a bunch of them handy, I could have a go at 3 way mitre with them but might also ring around see if anyone in Oxfordshire stocks the Genesis brand. Only need couple lengths.

Homelux trade trim completely different shape to their gloss or pro trims. If you can get them or genesis /tilerite then you're good to go.

Thanks AMA Tiling that's useful to know

Some rounded trims have a slightly offset radius making the 3 way mitre impossible to achieve a neat finish unless preformed corner insert is used. However, the correct trim cut well on a mitre can result in fantastic 3 way mitres!

That would be a sure winner of the 3 way mitre of the year award if we had one!

I found a local Genesis trim supplier and went for white straight edge trims, £5 a pop mind. I did a two way mitre on top and butt joined for the third. Simpler cleaner easier than mitres or quadrants I think. They did have some quadrants in a small pot which they said hardly anyone asked for, I did pause to consider it but decided against them this time. Other suppliers I called also said they didn't stock them, guessing they aren't a popular choice around here.
