Options in our Pencil Tile Trim Collection

At Tiletopia, we make it easy to finish your project the right way. Our pencil tile trim collection includes glass, marble, and ceramic in different colors and finishes. Whether you need something that matches your tile exactly or creates contrast, we stock options that work. Finishes range from glossy to honed tile pencil trim, depending on the look you're going for.

Always a classic. The White 0.5 x 12 Glossy Glass Pencil Trim stays neutral and works with most installations. The glossy finish reflects light the same way shiny white tiles do, so it blends in without creating a visible seam.

White 0.5 x 12 Honed Bianco Carrara Marble Pencil Trim offers a softer, natural stone edge with its honed finish that complements marble backsplashes perfectly. 

Blue and green tile pencil liners are available in glass and ceramic, both glossy and matte. They work well against neutral backgrounds or next to patterned tiles where you want some definition.

Wood-look glass pencil trim brings texture without actual wood maintenance. Black trims create a strong contrast, especially useful for framing bold backsplashes or adding definition to lighter tiles.

We’ve got everything from soft beiges and cool grays to deep blacks to natural greens in finishes from glossy to honed and matte. Want your pencil tile trim to blend in? Go for a tone-on-tone match. Want it to pop instead? Then pick a contrasting color. Either way, it’s all about what feels right for your space.

Pencil Tile Trim: Where and How To Use It

Frame Your Backsplash Like a Pro

Run pencil trim tile along the top and sides of your backsplash to hide those raw tile edges that collect grout residue while making your tile design look clean and polished. 

Shower Corners That Shine

Pencil tile trim shower edges are great when you have transitions between tile and painted walls or where tiles change direction. Install them along niche openings, corner angles, or where two different tiles meet. Defining edges with trim also lets you protect junctions from water penetration.

Give Open Shelves Some Style

Do you have open shelving in your kitchen or bathroom? Tile pencil liner works great along the edges of tiled shelving in kitchens or bathrooms. Run it along the bottom edge or vertical sides to create a border where the tile ends. This defines the shelf area without needing additional trim pieces.

Turn Borders Into Features

Use a pencil edge tile trim around the perimeter of your mosaic design or patterned tiles. This creates a border that separates the decorative mosaic tile from the plain tiles around it.

Smooth Moves Between Surfaces

When you’re switching from paint to wall tile, or from floor to wall tile, pencil liner tile trim is your hero. It hides the raw edge and creates a finished line between two different materials or finishes.

Installation Tips for Pencil Trims

• Cleaning the Surface – Clean the area where the trim will go. Clean the dust, grease, and any bumps so the your trim sits flat against the wall. Uneven backing causes gaps that look unprofessional.

• Planning Layout – Measure where your pencil tile trim will go before cutting it or applying any adhesive. Mark reference lines if you're running the trim along multiple edges. 

Material matters:

• Glass tile trims are delicate, so always use a non-sanded adhesive to avoid scratching their surface. Cut with a wet saw at low speed to prevent glass from chipping.

• Marble trims need a little TLC. Apply sealer after installation to protect your marble from staining. Also, clean with pH-neutral products only, as acidic cleaners can etch the surface.

• Ceramic trims are stain-resistant and easy to clean. Make sure to maintain consistent spacing and keep grout lines uniform for a professional appearance.

Placement tips:

• For backsplashes, align your pencil tile edging carefully with the countertop edge or cabinet line. Use a level to keep the trim straight across the span.

• In showers, be careful about the corners and joints that need extra adhesive coverage. Cut angles precisely where trim pieces meet at 90 degrees.

• With open shelving or feature edges, pencil trim adds a sharp frame, so check your spacing before fixing it in place.
  

After your pencil tile trim is installed, give it a quick wipe with a damp cloth every now and then. Avoid the harsh chemicals as always, and rough scrubbing pads because they can mess with the finish of your tiles. Do a little upkeep like this, and your tile trims will stay shiny, looking like a pro installed them for many years.
