Poor range of bath trims in DIY store

Whoever sealed the edging around my bath did not do a good job and it looks unsightly so I went to B&Q to buy bath trim for the three edges and was disappointed with the range of colours and quality. Ditto Wickes' website and Homebase. Does anyone know of a stockist I can contact? Thanks.

Try these sites -
http://www.homelux.co.uk/index.php?l=product_list&c=15

I haven't used them myself as I went for the B&Q option. However I wish I hadn't and returned the remainder of the roll for a refund 2 weeks later as it started to peel off.
Still deciding what to try next but these websites came up in my research.July 2018 - Now Mortgage Free0 -
Hi
I agree with the Blue70.
B&Q stock a range of Homelux trims http://www.homelux.co.uk/index.php?l=product_list&c=15
Tiletrader stock Genesis http://www.genesis-aps.com/index.php?page=products&category=5-bath-seal-trim
You could also try

If you see one you like ring them up and ask for a sample to check that you like it and the quality etc
They all should be able to tell you a local stockist or if you can buy it direct0 -
I buy most of my plumbing equipment from our local plumbers merchants, they are cheaper and far more helpful, try going mid morning or afternoon when they are not so busy, they wont have all of the pretty displays of the majors but our local can get anything.
Also its keeping local shops going and when you need help they can advise you (ours do anyway).0 -
Trimline are excellent, stock pretty much everything you could possibly need, and independents are a good shout too, you will always get better advice from an indy than from a shed.0
