Getting silicone sealant into a tight corner
 

I need to squeeze some silicone sealant into a tight spot along the
joint between the shower tray upstand and the acrylic wall covering.
There will be a gap of about 9mm but I will not be able to direct the
flow of sealant upwards as is needed because of the shower tray. A
small right angled tube attached to the tip of the sealant nozzle
would do the trick. Ideally it would be about 10mm long on each arm of
the right angle and an internal diameter of about 5mm although size
isn’t critical.

Any suggestions of what I could use for this would be greatly
welcomed.

A short length of fish tank plastic air hose, or heat up the plastic
nipple that most silicon sealants are supplied with and form a right
angle in it before it cools.

Bit late for OP maybe, but came across these today (two-thirds or so
of the way down the page) and recalled this thread.

Nozzle, usually. Nipples are generally a bit shorter in my experience.
