    c. between 2 ceramic tiles Use grout first, then let it cure, then use clear silicone sealer rubbed into the grout.
    d. between base molding and a wallUse a cheap DAP paintable latex and finger spread.

    For Tile I Use A Grout Caulk. If Your Just Use Grout In The Corners It Will Crack. For Molding Just A Paintable White Silicone Caulk Is Fine. For Bathroom You Can Get A Mildew Resistant Caulk.
