Hi guys,
I have almost finished renovating the bathroom however the last major obstacle i just cannot conquer is applying the silicone.
I have tried applying a bead, spraying it with a washing up liquid/water mix and smoothing it with my finger, i just couldn't get it straight.
I then tried it with masking tape, when peeling the tape didn't cause a defect that needed going over with the finger (resulting in the above) the bead still had that dreaded ridge along the edges.
Today i have tried using the Cramer Fugi tool, works pretty decent on the 1st pass, however i find if you have to stop to wipe away excess silicone, or to re-go over a defect the silicone starts to sort of pull losing the smooth finish. Even tried the washing up liquid spray over it but no difference.
I have been through tube after tube of silicone trying to do this however i just cannot get a decent finish.
Im using Bal silicone to match the colour of the grout.
Does anybody have any more tips, youtube videos always seem to go over the same techniques I have already tried.
Thanks
