I decided to do this video because my last siliconing video bit.ly/34b3O85 didn't properly cover how to silicone corners.
The trick with siliconing corners is to start with the vertical wall-grout line and let that bond (I actually left mine to bond overnight). After bonding Cramer recommend working on the floor-grout starting out of the corners in both directions, but I prefer to start just off one corner and then continue all the way around the corner in one continuous motion. That way you get a lovely clean corner and because you let the vertical silicone joint to go hard, you don't interfere with or damage the vertical line when you draw the tool around the corner.

@CharlieDIYte 3 года назад

@Payney84 Thanks. Glad you found it useful! The red one has gaps that you can fit the black sled to, which enables you to drag it over transverse (vertical) grout joints without the tool getting caught in each grout line, keeping the silicone joint nice and smooth.

@bruno852011 Год назад

Hi. Great video. I’ve tried many tools for removing old silicone. I agree that a Stanley knife is no good. I looked online for a knife with a flexible blade to get parallel with the surface in the corner. In the end I found the best thing to use is a fish filleting knife. They bend so you can get right in without scratching. You can also re sharpen them with a steel.

@davewright1832 Год назад

I'm 70 years old and have applied sealant countless times using various methods. I watched your video, paying particular attention to your research arguments. They made complete sense. I purchased a Fugi kit and followed all your advice on using it. I can honestly say that I have never done such a good job. Thank you

Sometimes the best teachers are the non-experts because the experts just carry on doing what they’ve always done but others re-evaluate ways of doing things with evolving technology and tools. Well done mate. The best silicone application video ever. And buy from his links in the description.

Charlie, your videos are absolutely brilliant! You explain everything clearly and concisely and then go on to demonstrate using excellent videography. You have addressed everything that I have had issues with in the past in your earlier video, and now you've shown how to deal with corners and uprights in a very comprehensive and straight forward manner, using the best tools for the job. I have now ordered the shaping tool you demonstrated and look forward to completing my shower installation having followed your tuition. Keep making videos....please! Your explanations are exactly what I need and following your example makes DIY a joy and not a chore. Thank you so much.....your efforts are genuinely appreciated!

Hi David, I can't thank you enough for that comment. It's a long old process getting these videos out, not to mention fitting them around family life!! I'm working on one at the moment and I've been editing for more than 2 days, so you have no idea how valuable you're kind words of encouragement are.

Great info. Better vid even than the previous. So glad I saw this because I bought the Cramer kit 7 straight away from Amazon. I’ve finally found the solution to not using my finger! I tried masking tape before, and it looked really neat, but I got that tiny lip that was left as per the previous video. Thank you so much for blasting the idea of using water and washing up liquid, or white spirits. Although they work, your video made it so obvious that water and white spirit could get behind the silicone without you knowing. Fantastic, keep it going as these videos are really informative.

Just purchased a kit 5 after watching your last video and made a great job re sealing the bath and kitchen worktops. Think I spent longer removing the old silicone and ensuring the surface was clean with methylated spirit than it took to apply the new silicone. Really pleased with the results, would previously spent ages applying masking tape but this is much better.

@francisking6671 8 месяцев назад

I just had to say thankyou very much for this guide. I was worried about the finish I just knew that I would not get the finish I wanted. I followed your advice, I already had a kit but without the fancy attachment which allows the smooth finish which glides over grout between the tiles. I read and re-read the 1 page of instructions for use ages ago and many times since. It didnt have any sort of guide as how to hold the kit. Your video told me perfectly and the job I did was almost perfect. I cant wait to do my kitchen now!!

@Landofhopeandglory575 4 года назад

Brilliant video. It's amazing how many people I know over the years who have bought similar profiling tools yet use them the wrong way round, using the profiled edge as it faces the silicone. All this does is finely smear out the silicone above and below your joint which then shows up on your tiles when viewed from an angle, it's a total bugger to remove too and invariably you end up mucking up your silicone seal in the process. Glad you talked about not using water too

I had come to the same conclusion about doing the verticals and letting them go off then the horizontals. I’ve complicated the matter by doing two different colours (grey tiles and white sanitary ware) so great on the tiles and white around the top of the bath etc. I also have the kit you used as I think I saw your previous video and bought it based on that. Anyway, thank you for your insight it’s much appreciated. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Charlie, really helpful video, intend purchasing the Profiling Kit. There is one thing that I have learnt that works really well, after I have put the Silicon on and it has dried, I put a waterproofer on, this reduces any mold for years, do the same with grouting and has the same effect.
