    Instead of a silicone bead, I use Homelux Flexible Bath Seal.

    I found mine at B&Q. It is a v shaped plastic strip with silicone on the back. You just cut it in lengths to suit your bath size. It is available in several widths. I find it much easier to keep clean.

    Good idea.

    We've just had double glazing installed and there was several long strips of window trim about 1.5inch wide left. I decided to use it for aound the bath as I reckoned I could use the silicone to fix it in place without too much of the silicone having to be on display. It's worked a treat I'm glad to say.
