hi,
Im tiling from a bath to the ceiling which i havnt done before, do you put the trim up with rapid set then tile to it?
Any tips would be great.

Not sure what you mean Shogun?? Is the wall wider than the bath and you need to put trim up either side vertically?

i put it in soon as i have put tiles up, poke it in, also Silicon the outside too just small beed make it look tide this also helps to keep it in place

forgot to say,leave the last row of tiles up(end of the bath) till last so when ya poke it in the addy has not gone off, hope it all makes sence

hi

I forgot to mention its landscape and brick affect, so i think i might dry cut to make sure its good before fixing as i said, its that flat trim which isnt giving me much to play with.

Aye i used the stone thingy and got them nice and smooth :hurray:
i opted for leaving a space in the addy spread and slipped the trim in at the end

after stuffing addy into the space

thats why i love tiling,learning:smilewinkgrin:

Thanks for the replys

Cheers
