We got them at Phil's Tile Warehouse, Eumindi Road, Noosaville (actually on a little side road, turned off the roundabout, with other trade businesses). http://www.philstilewarehouse.com.au The tiler (he did a bathroom floor-to-ceiling too) was Chris Melville (C & P Melville Tiling) and I couldn't recommend him enough. He was more expensive than an earlier tiler, but it showed in attitude, cleanup, organisation, suggestions, work tools and result.

As said above the metal strip is generally installed during the tiling. I just could not sway my hubby to go with a capping tile in our budget ensuite reno, but in hindsight he agrees we should have.... Anyway, I decided to tape the tiles and paint over the grout as with the darker paint colour it helps it recede. The grout line isn't too noticeable from a distance thankfully, but here is a close up which might help you decide what to do

This is a great article.... thank you for sharing :). Be nice to see this in the 'stories' section where everyone will see it.

Post grouting, and grout drying a fine layer of grout remains. It is easier to remove the next day, by wiping with a soft disposable cloth ( blue roll about $ 14 ) change cloth frequently. I it has been on there for some time, check with tiler if he/she sealed the tiles. If the tiles are not sealed...Tile shops sell grout remover, need to take care and clean each tile..to avoid the grout
