The square chrome trims seem to be popular at the moment and i use cubes rather than mitreing corners for window reveals and where 3 corners meet.

On my own bathroom I didn't want to use a chrome trim and the tiles are 1m x 0.5m, so in my wisdom I decided to get some brushed chrome L trim, key it with sandpaper, prime it, and then pick the two main colours out of the tiles (Silver/grey and brown) and use a car spray with a couple of coats and then a satin lacquer.

Here's the result (Sorry Tony)

I still am Tony, they do occasionally get done when a customer will pay Tony.
The paint is very robust with the lacquer on

It actually took me longer to spray and finish the trim than it would have done to mitre. Tiles are 1m x 0.5m so I may have struggled a bit anyway
