Hi,
First timer here.

I am currently doing some tiling and I am now looking at choosing my socket & switches.

The tiles I am using are METRO tiles. During a recent trip I stayed in a property that had just the sockets I needed. But I just can't find them anywhere.

Description.
Silver in colour, (brushed metal) & they had a sort of backing that looked like it was rubber. I can only assume it was like the socket slotted onto it and it provided a softer connection with metal on tile.

Hope that makes sense. Anyone come across these.?

Cheers Wayne

Some sockets were supplied with them, its a gasket meant to stop new plaster tarnishing the finish, you dont see them much now but were popular in the 80's on brass accessories

some used to have a gasket that went around the edge of the metal plate, not sure exactly what your after, should have taken a photo, may have been able to tell you what they were
