We used to use plastic bath trim then tile over, but now use Classi seal which sticks to bath edge before putting in place, this leaves an upstand about 70mm, then tile up from bath over the seal then finish with a tidy gun of microban silicon.

...and do make sure you fill the bath with water first.

i always use tech-7 silicon, it never seems to peel off or go mouldy. it's a bitt harder to use as its thicker than normal stuff.
its about twice the price of normal silicon but well worth the extra cash.
