they also make rubber glue-on trim that fastens to the tile and
presses down on the tub.


I've heard the glue-on trim is supposedly "better" than caulk, but ...

In my experience that stuff only creates more gaps for water to collect
in, and mildew to grow on. In my tub, the trangle-shaped gaps where the
strip meets tile-grout-tile, are inevitable (since the strips are fairly
rigid), and are yucky. I'll be removing the strips, cleaning, and
re-caulking soon, because I'm not about to try to clean those gaps.

One mo Olive oil is good to use to keep the caulk from
sticking to your skin.


Now that's interesting ?!. Why didn't you post it a few days ago, when
caulking technique was all the rage?
