Materials Required
Kitchen sink edge trim
Caulk gun

Tape measure
Utility knife
Trim adhesive
Clean cloth
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Measure and Cut the Trim
Measure the length of the sink edge where the trim will be installed. Cut the trim to the measured length using a sharp utility knife. Ensure the cut is precise and clean.
Step 2: Apply Trim Adhesive
Apply a thin layer of trim adhesive along the back of the trim. Do not over apply adhesive as it may ooze out and create a mess. Use a thin bead of adhesive and spread it evenly.
Step 3: Position and Press the Trim
Position the trim on the sink edge and press it down firmly into the adhesive. Make sure the trim aligns correctly and is flush with the edge of the sink.
Step 4: Secure with Caulk
Apply a generous bead of silicone caulk along the joint between the trim and the sink. Use a caulk gun to ensure a smooth bead. Smooth the caulk using a clean cloth or your finger.
Step 5: Remove Excess Caulk
Use a damp cloth or paper towel to wipe away any excess caulk. Do this immediately before the caulk dries to prevent smudges or stains.
Step 6: Allow to Dry and Cure
Allow the caulk to dry and cure completely before using the sink. Depending on the caulk used, this may take anywhere from 12 to 24 hours.
Tips for a Clean and Durable Installation
Make sure the sink edge is clean and dry before applying the trim.
Use a high-quality silicone caulk specifically designed for kitchen and bathroom applications.
Apply the caulk in a continuous bead and do not skip any sections.
Protect the newly installed trim from accidental damage during the drying process.
Regularly clean and maintain the trim to ensure its longevity and aesthetics.
By following this comprehensive guide, you can ensure a secure and professional-looking installation of your kitchen sink edge trim. Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions or require assistance with any aspect of the process.
