Sorry to ask - thought i'd give it one more try!

What do the experts recommend as a width for sealant around a bath.
I've been putting this job off for weeks now as the last time I
attempted it, it looked as Stevie Wonder had put the Silicone down.

How wide should the gap be between the two bits of masking tape (thanks
for the tip on an earlier post)???. I cant delay any longer, 'er
indoors wants to know why we still cant use the bath.......I'd be
really grateful for more expert advice - my wet finger has a date with
some silicone and I cant delay any more!
Thanks
Alex

Just re-done my shower tray and as well as using yea olde masking tape
method I used a Plasplugs £2 silicone sealant scraper from B&Q. Note you
push it along scooping up the execess sealant as it goes. Best silicone I
have done years.
