Is the blue meant to be a better sucker or does it just look nicer
I have recommended many times to buy suction cups
not black. but nobody listens to me .... I'm not considered in this forum :)
jerry, thanks for the question.
the black rubber on some opaque porcelain
leaves a black circle almost impossible to clean.
red, blue or gray colored rubber no.
and work very well on very rough tiles
because the rubber is softer.

I-lumos from Hartington Heath. Cheap and good quality. They were the only led lights I could find with a continuous flow of light. 8x16mm and come in any length from 1m up. For out door so coated in a very thick hard silicone which made them a pain to work with.
Can only be cut in 1m lengths as well.
Just wanted something different and I love lights as a decorative feature.
Lights were 16mm deep which was a problem but wanted the clear light part sitting out in the tile.
Just split tile, stuck bottom half in and any end tiles which couldn't be split, then glued lights in with sticks like rubbish turbo as needed fast setting because the lights were all out of shape. Had to prop and then hold some parts for 20mins lol. Stuck top tile on (tiles were bedded in with 4x 3mm tile spacers, one in each corner, so I could get a flat level finish) and just got 14mm tile trim to cover it.
Had to make all my own connectors mind then wired it up to a dimmer switch run off an adjoining socket. They were to bright to do with out a dimmer tbh. Put my head away at the start but now I know how, it's easy done. Just the 1m cuts only is annoying.
How do you come on for getting round the tight 90degree corners?
