Hey folks. Gutted bath room and pink tub is gone! I have a question on how to finish the gap in bullnose trim. I am installing bull nose around the tub surround. If you can picture this, if you are looking at the tub, on the right side you will be looking at the rounded edge of the bullnose where the partition is between the tub and closet. So what you will see straight on is a gap that will probably end up about 3/16 inch or so with the thin set.
I know I can get laticrete caulk to match the grout I will be using but I think even the best caulk job will just look wrong staring edge on at it. I'm wondering if I keep the thinset maybe a 1/2 inch short of the bullnose edge it would look far better if I can push drywall compound into that gap and paint it. The back side of the bullnose does have a joint similar to a rabbet joint that is about 1/16 x 3/16
