[QUOTE="ojtiler, post: 615591"] [b]Re: Easypoxy - do I need to mask metal trim to stop it getting scratch[/b] Brief update in case anyone wondering how things panned out! I found masking the metal trim was effective in stopping the trim being damage with the float as I applied the grout, but I found after I removed the tape that minor 'streaks' of epoxy had managed to get under the edge of the tape. I found the best way to deal with this was to wipe very carefully with some thinners I had in the garage (designed for resin floor paints). This really brought the trim up clean without scratching it. So - I'm not a professional tiler, but anyone considering doing this who is as inexperienced as I was, I would recommend applying the masking tape and wiping with thinners before the epoxy has set.
