Product Overview
MSI Renzo Jade 3" x 12" Bullnose Ceramic Trim Molding provides a finished, rounded edge for ceramic wall tile installations. As part of MSI’s popular Renzo Collection, Renzo Jade features a soft, translucent seafoam-green glaze with subtle shade variations and a glossy finish that reflects light and highlights handcrafted-style textures.
Featuring a long-edge bullnose profile (finished along one 12" side), this 3" x 12" piece seamlessly caps subway tile backsplashes, finishes shower wall borders, and trims window reveals—eliminating exposed raw tile edges without needing separate trim pieces or metal transition strips.
Recommended Applications
-
Kitchen Backsplash Edges: Creates a glossy, rounded soft-green border where subway tile field layouts terminate against drywalls or cabinetry.
-
Shower Wall Borders & Niche Caps: Finishes vertical shower wall ends, window returns, and recessed shower shelf perimeters.
-
Wainscoting & Accent Wall Capping: Serves as a clean top rail cap for half-height ceramic tile walls in powder rooms, primary baths, and laundry spaces.
Design Profile
-
Aesthetic Inspiration: Organic Modernism, Coastal Cottage, Soft Botanical, Modern Farmhouse.
-
Visual Advantage: The translucent sage-jade glaze adds subtle color, visual depth, and a clean finished border that unifies field tile layouts.
-
Complementary Finishes: Renzo Jade subway field tiles, natural white oak millwork, brushed brass or champagne bronze hardware, and creamy quartz or white marble countertops.
Colors and textures may vary slightly between tile batches due to natural manufacturing variations. For a clear representation, we recommend ordering a sample.

Installation and Handling Guidelines
-
Setting Mortar: Install using a high-quality, polymer-modified thin-set mortar rated for ceramic wall tile applications (ANSI A118.4).
-
Grout Joint Alignment: Align bullnose pieces tightly against adjacent field tiles (such as Renzo Jade 3"x8" or 3"x12" subway field tiles), maintaining a consistent 1/16" to 1/8" grout joint.
-
Corner Miter Cuts: Cut 45-degree corner miters carefully using a wet tile saw equipped with a continuous-rim diamond blade engineered for glazed ceramic tile.
-
Wet-Area Waterproofing: For shower wall installations, ensure underlying waterproofing membranes are properly installed prior to tile and trim placement.
Care and Maintenance
-
Routine Cleaning: Clean easily with warm water and a neutral pH household cleaner or mild dish soap using a non-abrasive sponge.
-
Stain & Moisture Resistance: Glazed ceramic is non-porous and resists water absorption, cooking splatters, and soap scum buildup.
-
Zero Sealing Required: Unlike natural stone trim moldings, glazed ceramic requires no topical sealers, waxes, or special chemical treatments over its lifespan.

Yes. It is designed for wet and dry interior wall applications, including shower perimeters, niche frames, and window reveals.
Does this bullnose match other field tiles in the MSI Renzo Jade collection?
Yes. This trim piece is color-matched to coordinate seamlessly with MSI Renzo Jade 3"x8" and 3"x12" subway ceramic field tiles.
