Hi All

I'm looking for some nuggets of wisdom please.

I've used the plastic rounded edge trim before and got great results without much thought.

I've gone for metal square edged stuff this time and I can't figure out what to do here.

The left hand wall at the tap end of the bath is going to be fully tiled, but around the corner, where it's painted white, I was only going to tile half way up.

So the trim sits proud of the wall on the external corner to accommodate the rough edges on the bottom half. And the I guess I just have to deal with it sitting proud at the top, where the wall is painted. Unless anyone has any clever ideas?

Thanks a lot

Trim full height flush with corner,- half height return -,fit separate ,so as back to back trim on edge and also trim top edge. (See how that looks, if you get what l mean.)

So I'd have double trim at a 90 degree angle to each other on the bottom half?

Aye that’s right, don’t know how it would look, try it out and see.

or you could try out , trim corner to half height, small shelf on top then continue trim above in line with corner.
