I am getting ready to skin my project in aluminum (build - Heart of Gold). I would like some advice about what trim to use.
I don't want to use the edging with the vinyl strip insert so I see the following options:
1 - Teardrops trailer.net has 9' sections of body edging, measures 15/16th by 1/2 in. Says it is very easy to bend. The 15/16. I like that it comes in 9' sections although it is still too short for single piece along my roof edge. the 15/16th is also a bit wide for my hatch edging.
2 - teardroptrailerparts (vintage tech) has a 7/8th by 1/4" in 8' sections that I could use everywhere including the hatch seal edge.
3 - Lil bear has a variety of edging but seems quite a bit more expensive than the other alternatives.
Also wondering if I can use flat stock aluminum edging for the bottoms or should I use the the regular edge trim with the lip overlapping the bottom edge?
I would appreciate hearing from any of you that have used these trims and get your impressions and recommendations.
Thanks,
drew.
