Sourcing plastic trim

Post by geofflove »

Looking for help again! And just saw a similar post below although a different trim.

Now I've got the Moulin Rouge working I'm trying to tidy it up a bit. There is this gold J profile around the edge which also holds the glass. It appears to be made of a similar alloy to the carpet strips you get. Indeed, it's very similar to come carpet strips, but unfortunately not quite similar enough. Anyone know where I can get some? I'm planning on respraying the rest of the gold hardware. I could spray these too, but obviously it won't be the same finish, and these are pretty battered in places, so the result won't be as good as some new ones - if only I can find them!

It's just gutter profile aluminium extrusion - should be easy enough to find. Try ebay.

This on German ebay. You'd have to ask about dimensions.

Thanks. Someone on a German forum posted this link to me too. Sadly it was too small.
I’ve now gone with a respray on the trim. Was trying to avoid it but it was in a sorry state. Just awaiting some new screws then I’ll post some pics once it’s all back together.

Hi
I didn’t in the end as couldn’t find any. I ended up spraying the one I had. Turned out OK though!

Gold plastic trim for Jamieson See Saw

Post by polaris »

Topic merged - Site Admin.

Trying to source something close to the original trim for my See Saw project. I have tried various searches to no avail. It’s plastic track / u channel. I can get brass but would rather the original plastic. Any help appreciated.
