Dupree products & trim

[g_man1146]

What I did on our '90 PT40 worked and may for you.I used RTV on one
end to glue about a foot of the trim in place. Then on a hot day I
stretched the vinyl insert toward the other end back to over it's
original length then used RTV to glue that end (again about the last
one foot). I secured the vinyl in place with duct tape until the RTV
curred. This lasted the several years I still owned the coach.
