Best silicone for around the bath?
We had our bathroom done about 18 months ago, in a couple of places a very small bit of the silicone has split. We went over it with more silicone as a temporary measure so it didn’t do any damage to the room below when we use the shower but it really needs to be removed and redone. Which is the best white silicone to use for around the bath?
Thank you very much everyone for all your advice.

If at first you don't succeed - remove all evidence that you tried.
