One tile I would bend the trimI bought one today £220 with 10 spare blades couldn’t bare the thought of cutting all the trim by hand on 22 splashbacks seeing as half the splashbacks are 1 300x600 tile then brushed trim
Looks do much better 👍One tile I would bend the trim
I did it in a plumbing supplies showroom once and was surprised on how many plumbers picked up on it .Looks do much better 👍
Been doing it for so many years now, just looks so much better, it flows and doesn't look sharp or angular.I did it in a plumbing supplies showroom once and was surprised on how many plumbers picked up on it .
I find it works better if you soften the corner of the tile a smidgenBeen doing it for so many years now, just looks so much better, it flows and doesn't look sharp or angular.
Always get a comment of how good it looks.
Do the same on kitchen splashbacks, half tiled round windows.
Yes Jerry, totally agreeI find it works better if you soften the corner of the tile a smidgen
Didn't say I've mastered itI've tried bending it a couple times but I haven't mastered it yet 😔

Thanks Will give it a go tomorrowThe base of the v needs to be 3mm wide.
Bend using a tile (say 400mm x 400mm) to help stop twisting
