merit, i'm pretty sure it will have to be a re-fit.

Chrome trim is really 'anodised aluminium'. If you rub away at the surface you will come to the dull aluminium underneath. It will look a lot worse than it already is.

Would you ever fit a scratched tile? No.

..........because you know that to correct it post grouting will cost you in time & money.

The scratch is 100% not your doing.

Have you been paid?
