    Tile Easy make a 10mm trim. But you may find it a tight squeeze if you have a cut going into the trim.

    One of my 'irritations', is trim jumping up in steps of 3mm!
    Used to do work for Genesis in my 'previous life', It's only the cost of a Die' for the extrusion machine but of course they just want to keep it simple from their point of view!

    If this is chluter trim.... they tell us here to order the same depth of trim as the thickness of the tile, because they have already allowed the thickness of the setting material in their measurement of the trim.
