Shower rail replacement

Post by Dickie »

I'm replacing the shower rail in the Grey Bathroom on the West Wing of Puller Towers. This will result in a couple of holes in the grey tile any suggestings on hole to disguise?

I think the best match you'll get is with filler and acrylic (artists) paint. It will take a bit of faffing around to get a perfect match.

Personally, I'd try and find some sort of item to utilise the existing holes, soap dish /ornament/hook for spongy things.
One day it will all be firewood.

Thanks AJ. Would acrylic paint & grout be any good??
