Hi

 

After a supplier for the trim on the royalite panels where they finish against the windows.

 

My trim (or edge beading or whatever it's called) has gone hard from thirty years of exposure.

 

I know that any suitable beading will do the job and I found something thats close, but are there any recommendations for a supplier?

 

 

cheers

If memory serves me, I got some at Plane Plastics in Oklahoma (Ada?). I got white and then painted it with plastic paint in an almond color to match the royalite.

I believe you are talking about Windlace.  Plane Plastics and others sell it.

If it's windlace, I used Plane Plastics for trimming around both doors. It improves the seal around the door in a nice faux leatherette sort of way.

The ragged old fabric windlace leaves a terrible memorable first impression on your parents. At least they're honest enough to tell you in a nice way.

So for a few bucks get new windlace from Plane Plastics. Use the old one as a pattern to cut and trim and find screw holes. It's a good DIY job for a new owner. Your parents will appreciate it!

Best regards,

Mcmaster carr has about any type of edge trim you need. Most autoparts stores has the U shaped edge trim. It is U shaped and has glue already inside the U so it stays where you put it.

My window beading is chromed. I'll see if I can find out where it came from, but the man who knows for sure just left town for a week.
