45 degree angles

[minion]

Hello,
Looking for a little advice please. We need to tile a wall that has a 45 degree angle (rougly) and I assumed I could get a trim to suit it but the tile shop said they dont do any to suit.

Whats the best thing to do to finnish the tiling off? Was thinking of tunning white Silicon?

Ideas appreciated.

thank you

is it an external angle?

When you say a 45 degree angle what do you mean, the pitch of the ceiling, a corner???

Photo's are always helpfull if you could take some and post em up.

maybe one of our sponsors will have a trim

does it need to meet with another trim at the ends at all?

Sorry I should have be clearer,

it is not easy to explain.

Imagine a hexagon shape, if you were tiling a hexigon there would be gaps where the tiles meet.

The wall is at an angle like a hexagon. (if that makes sence?)

 

[doug boardley]

are you tiling the inside or outside of your hexagon, minion?

are you tiling the inside or outside of your hexagon, minion?

Sorry, the outside.

you can bend plastic trim around it by taking notches out the back of the trim to allow it to bend.It can be done with metal trim put a little more trickier.

I think minion is on about vertical corners Bri, personally I'd mitre them, like below

the corner on the left is an external mitre, the one on the right an internal mitre
