Just done 2 bathrooms with them, look so much better than plastic. There were no square corners which was a pain so if took a while getting the angles right. Customer originally wanted white plastic but soon changed her mind when i showed her both side by side

Yes, use the square ones the most, they can make very cheap tiles look a lot more expensive! With rectified porcs I tend to not use trim though, can't beat the through bodied look of nice porcs, gives a very robust look imo. I never use any trim with stone.

I like to use these

The cube is inserted in to the end reducing the need for any mitreing. Ideal for internal and external corners

Hi Charlie1, I have just fitted 300 x 600 x 10 porcs with rectified edges. Like you I opted to leave them finished without edge trim. However I need to seal the edge. When I wet the edge it darkens the porc and masks the machine marks which is exactly the effect I need. Can you recommend a sealer for this job, that will have this desired affect and not make the ede look varnished? I thought about LTP colour intensifier and sealer. Is this stuff any good?

Cheers
Mark

Unique are the manufacturer and I get them from STS in Leeds, trims and cubes, pricey but I think they look the biz
