Thin long bladed knife worked a treat plus WD 40 as lube!
Well it was hard going for the first couple of tiles then I realised that silicone debris was making the blade jam by sticking to the blade.
Squirted some WD40 on the blade and on the shower frame and the blade just cut through the next two tiles in seconds. Applied more WD 40 and it was all done in under 10 minutes. Have scrapped off the excess residue with loose Stanley Knife Blade. Rubbed down area where shower rail was with some Astonish Oven Paste and a white pan scourer. Great result, small marks on the white tiles probably from the blade contact removed mainly with the Astonish Paste and as a final finish some Brasso on a dry cloth. Thanks again for the tips. |

Well done mate, when you have done dozens like me you give it little thought, but realize it can be a bit daunting if not done before, Rick
