This DIY video provides you tips for cutting and installing RONDEC, QUADEC, and other types (jolly) of aluminum bullnose tile edging trim by Schluter for bathroom or kitchen. This brushed nickel trim gives a professional, finished look to help transition between tile and drywall, for example. It becomes a permanent part of your tiling, as it installs with thinset behind your tile. To cut, use a miter saw with appropriate blade (be careful!!). But if you don't have a saw or blade or want a cheaper option, use a hacksaw with a metal blade (by hand) or Dremel tool with a cut-off wheel. It requires a steady hand, but works great! File edges with metal file. Consider sealing cut edges if installing in wet conditions (test first).

Wet saw works great for the job. Been doing it with one for 20 years.

Second this, tile wet saw works great for either straight or 45° cuts. Will have to do a bit of cleanup with the file. A bit of blue tape on the trim peice helps too. Standard snips work great for getting rid of excess material on the flange.

Tool maker of 30-yrs here. Just use a mitre saw with a carbide tipped blade and feed it very slow. Then use a wire wheel on a bench grinder or on angle grinder, just a handheld wire brush to deburr the edges. This dude is making a mountain out of a molehill.

Aluminum is soft like wood. Aluminum can be cut with any wood cutting blade. A miter saw would work perfectly.

Thanks for the detailed video. I have some thoughts on this. The usual advice is to start by making everything as perfectly level, plumb and square as possible. Then careful tile cutting to make up any small errors is the final step, rather than pushing the trim against the tile. For your outside corner, the first thing to do is to make sure that the trim piece is securely installed using a waterproof band, that it is plumb (preferably using a laser line), and that the neighboring wall lines up with this trim as perfectly as possible. This often requires some drywall work or repair. Once everything is set, you tile to the trim, rather than trim to the tile. You can even install the trim on a different day from the tile, as long as you keep the tiling surface clean of excess thinset after installation of the trim. The props shown at around 15:50 to bend the trim are a bit painful to see. But I would be interested in other views and opinions.

I use tin snips for straight cuts if I don't have a miter saw nearby. I cut a gunthair long and file it to finish. Some times I hot glue to the substrate with a slight gap between edging and the wall so the thinset supports it completely.

FYI - Vertical pieces are never level. The goal is to be plumb instead.

Angle grinder works great, but whenever I'm installing these Schluter edges, I'm also installing tile, so since I already have the wet saw set up with the diamond blade, I just use that.

I did end up buying the Diablo aluminum cutting blade for my small miter saw for like $30 and totally worth it. But can use a decent carbide tipped blade but will dull faster and doesn’t make as clean a cut.

@@johnkinlaw8235 Yeah I always have to debur my cuts but I don’t have a need for a chop saw other than to cut profiles. My meters are always perfect but I been in the trade since 98. It only takes less than a minute to debur.

Painters tape works well to hold your Schluter in place until the thin set starts to cure if it’s slightly moving.

Sorry but you are really not ready for instructional videos on tile work. The globs of thinset looked terrible and I am sure you were far from 100% coverage. There were other mistakes, I am not trying to be critical, rather letting those watching know there are better tiling resources out there. Also as a resource, John Bridge tile forum is a great website for any and all tile, stone and general bath remodeling information. Also the quickest most accurate least destructive way to cut the trim (schluter or any other aluminum) is with a diablo aluminum/laminate saw blade in a miter saw.

Great comment - all opinions welcome! Viewers are probably smart enough to view many videos, from DIYers like me to the pros, before taking on a shower tile job. In the end, I love my new shower - nearly 2 years later it's standing strong and looks beautiful. Cheers!
