putting edging trim on old tiles
Hi everyone my name is Tony
I wanted to put regular metal tile edging ( from B& Q) behind tiles in my bathroom. The reasons for this is that one wall (on a corner) is not straight going vertically so there is a gap which gets larger (gap of 8mm towards the top and no gaps at bottom) as the tiles go up to the ceiling.
I wanted to know
1. should I just put extra grout to cover the gap between the edge of the wall and tile
or
2. add silicone filler.
3.If I was to put edging in to hide this, the tiles and adhesive has set. Is there a way to scrape adhesive away to slot tile edging behind? or will i need to remove tiles.
What would you recommended
Thanks
Tony

Re: putting edging trim on old tiles
From what I understand, I'd be removing the tiles from the window reveal edge fit trims and fit new tiles
