These were a challenge. No good spot to measure off, and, water soluble glue.
Decided to template the whole thing and let the glue dry until the next day. You know the drill, make your cut, hurry up and blot on towel, quickly transfer to flat spot before it all falls off the sheet.

Excellent work Greg !
Rich, the pan is nobleseal topped with hex carrera. Confession - the soldier course was due to poor measuring on my part. Should have been horizontal all the way around, but measured to the high spot not the low spot

I agree with Paul , excellent work Greg . Did you use urethane for those ?
I like the way it looks with the bottom row Paul . It blends with the more difficult front return corner , which balance it . I am glad you try different -- lost art of detail work -- designs , as we used to see on brick or stone work on facades .

Thanks Roberto. Yes, it was that godawful Bostik Dimension. Translucent with glass sparklys. The tile hides the haze pretty good, but I will probably have to go back with some Blaze if the HO complains.
Actually pretty cool material, and it fit that tile to a tee.

It looks very good, Greg. I find that the Blaze doesn't work well after a 24h period . For dry locations , I wipe a little more than I would like , to avoid using the blaze .

Looks killer Greg!! Can only imagine how long it took ya to do that"little" area lol.
The few times I've used Blaze,to remove film,it has done an excellent job. The key is trying to just use it on the tile/glass etc,and keep it away from the joints,if possible.

Prefloat and some leveling spacers used on certain tiles to pull them into plane.

Yeah Paul, it has a great effect when it's all down. I really like the final product.
