I need to find wide probably 4cm sealant strips to go round my bath - I can fin narrow about 2cm from Homebase, but they are not wide enough.

Any one help?

I recall seeing some about 2" wide in focus some time back, but the bathseal here is wide and looks interesting

4cm, you could use bricks,lol,,
you could always use some upvc skirting cut down to size, siliconed on.

So you are going to use something 2" wide to cover a 4cm gap=4 inch

I've got similar problem to this too! I'm gonna splash out on a few curved edging tiles to go round the edge, as i'm not keen on the plastic strip stuff. Does anyone know where to get chrome, curved edging tiles??

Breathtakingly brilliant bodge!(In the alternative solution sort of way)Use the edging strips that are commonly used by uPVC window fitters,they range in width up to about 10 cm.and are easily attached with strips of fitting foam,then seal edges with silicon sealer.Done it loads of times and it works.Have fun!

Yes, he's going to use something 2" wide to cover a 4cm gap as 4cm = 40mm and 2" = 50mm, give or take.

4" = 100mm = 10cm. (approx)
