Not to hijack the thread but in the opinion of you guys who install full bathrooms what silicones are the best out there for sticking, sealing anti mould etc?
Mould has more to do with ventilation in my experience. Also mould often occurs where people Grout expansion joints and Silicon over them.

Can’t really go wrong with a good quality Clear like Dow for sticking. Clear sealant sticks better than white or coloured. Ever Build forever clear and forever white is decent. Be careful with some of the colour matching sealants, a lot are nuetral curing and I find don’t stick as well.

neutral cure is a must on stone, I've seen some right messes on grey limestone with clear silicon which contains acid.
