Hello folks,
I've got some aluminium tile trim here which is going to go horizontally along the top of some border tiles.
I've run into a bit of an issue though, how do you get the top of the trim perfectly flush along the whole wall where there might be very slight bumps (the type that when tiling you'd just correct with a tiny tiny bit more adhesive)? For instance, if I was using a white pvc trim I could silicon the top edge (or use grout?) - that way you wouldn't see any tiny gaps between the top of the trim and the wall.
I don't think that this would look right with aluminium trim though, so what's the secret? I've tried pins but they don't grip the wall so well. Again its just at these tiny tiny dips so whatever I use to close the gaps has to be pretty strong because the aluminium doesn't bend quite as easily as plastic.
Thanks!
P.S Incase it makes any difference the trim is the one that looks like a flat strip when it is installed - Square Edge I think.
