plastic T molding on ebay

I was looking to order by aluminum T molding for the doors, my Jewel Box is not going to be covered in aluminum though.

I just by chance did a google too, then an ebay search and found several auctions for a 3/4" T molding used on arcade games and shelving apparently. I found it in black, white, gray, red, etc.

Sorry I didn't get the link but has there been any cussing or discussing about it?

my misgivings would start with the fact that the center leg (and the rest for that matter) would not lend itself to attachment in the same manner that AL T would...it would be prone to cracking and would not be rigid enough for a proper seal....and then the whole UV thing to boot...I would say go with the AL...but then I am predjudiced towards the AL...

I think the T-Molding you are talking about is meant to go in a groove arounf the edge of a table. I don't think it would work for reasons already stated unless you want to put it on a counter edge in your galley.

I've got a couple of rolls of that, and I don't see how you could make it work. I can send you a piece if you want to try it though.

Could I use that on the tops of my doors? Will it bend that way?
