Thanks, Jake.

Okay, I understand how this stuff works. Looks very much like that which Scamp uses to trim out their body edges. My concern is whether this trim has an opening wide enough for the joining "lips" of my Pacer... I need room in the trim for 1/4 to 3/8" thickness to be inserted to the depth of approx 1/2".
Hello again Robert:
Ok, I just measured the opening at the top (or bottom, depending how you look at it, lol) of the "U", and it is 3/8".
It will cover over up to 1/2 an inch of the seam, or depth of the seam.
So, it sounds exactly the sizing that you need.

I hope that helps?
Cheers, Jake

Robert,

If the Q-trim product is similar to the original seam trim on the U-haul, then I think it would also be similar to Trim-lok. Trim-lok comes in numerous widths and depths to suit any number of applications.

Here is a link:

Fantastic! Thanks, both.

I'm familiar with TrimLok. They seem to sell only massive quantities... min 250 feet!

Does anyone know of a reseller where smaller lengths can be bought?

Robert contact TrimLok.. they're the wholesalers and should be able to tell you the retail distributors in your area.
