Discuss Shower Alcove Internal Corners - Grouted By Mistake, Can I Silicon On Top?? in the Australia Tiling Forum area at TilersForums.com.

Dang diddly! In my mad rush to get as much of the shower alcove grouted before the epoxy grout became unusable, I absent mindedly filled the vertical corner joints with grout.

I tanked the bejeebus outta the whole alcove, and the bathroom is on the ground floor sitting on sand and cement screed.

Could I get away with a line of Silicon on top of the grouted corners? I'm not entirely sure I can get a grout remover blade in there without scuffing or chipping tiles (might actually be a case of can't face doing it :tearsofjoy:!

Epoxy will be fine it has flexible properties. And you're sure as hell not getting that out easily now.

If anything, wait until some form of failure occurs and take it from there. But I doubt you'll see one.
