I have a bath frame (ie a large box that the bath fits into so there is a shelf like surface all round the top of the bath) that I am tiling. Obviously I am putting tile trim along the edges. One of the corners is rounded to about the same curve as on the top of a bottle of coke, i.e. a pretty sharp curve, and I cannot find trim for the tiles that bends this sharply. Does anyone know where I can get tile trim that will bend to a curve this sharp (ie, roughly the same curve as the top of a coke bottle). Any help much appreciated! Carmel

We purchased a new bathtub to replace the old 1977 mustard yellow bathtub & the new tub has curved corners, my questions is there a conversion kit to make curved corners into square corners for tile?

For that tight a turn, if the tile company doesn't make one, you would buy a straight piece and cut some trapazoid pieces with a tile saw. That way you can make a nice round turn. Make a template out of cardboard so you can determine what angle to cut.
