From doing tile research, I noticed some tile directly on to their worktop and others don't. I've done it both ways now. However, because I had a corner joint on my worktop that protrudes ever so slightly, I opted for spacers along the bottom. Then I cut my trim roughly down to size, leaving a cm or two extra. And with the remaining trim, I laid my new cut on top as below and drew along it for a visual. First, I measured the gap left under my window sill and deducted a 2mm tile spacer gap. *Note, I could curse whoever installed this window sill as really, it isn't deep enough to hide the edges. So, I do plan to build the sill up later with a deeper lip.I lined my first tile up with my centre pencil line, ensuring I left a slight gap for the spacer and pressed firmly on the wall.

Then I apply a bead of silicone, My best advice is try to be consistent - not too much, not too little. Now spray the silicone with watered down washing up liquid and smooth run along it with the corner of a credit card.

It should have teeth on it which looks quite notchy. Here, I'm starting where my centre line is, but making sure I only work with enough as I go. Mine probably had about 30 minutes working time before it set. It's not often when I hear about grout sealant. In fact, it's only ever been from a handful of my followers who do this for a living. The idea of sealing grout it to doubly make sure it's waterproof and prevent stains. Also, it's an awful thought to take ages cutting a tile with hand tools, only to find you've measured it wrong in the first place. However, no matter how perfect my mitre cut was, it wouldn't sit closed on its own. Now, maybe I have OCD, but I found last month's Bostik Fix & Flash resin glue perfect too.

And right or wrong, this happened to me once, so I prepped it again with a pva solution then left to dry before continuing on the next day.
