Replacement Edging for Windjammer II

[BarryJose]

I'm new to the forum, so greetings. I'm hoping someone has solved my particular problem and can point me in the right direction. The outside edging on my Windjammer II is breaking down and getting sticky. Are there any leads on replacement edging since Vetter.com is no longer an option? If not, any ideas about cleaning and reconditioning the original?

I bought new edging from Vetter a few months ago. I know their web store is no longer active, but I have emailed directly and Carol was able to sell me edging and other parts. When I last heard from her they still had lots of edging on the shelf.

You can also find suitable edging at auto-parts stores.

That is great news. I will reach out to Carol and get my edging ordered. Thank you for the information, that really made my day!!

Really? I've searched and never found anything close. I've seen some stuff that is vaguely close at some marine supply stores, but nothing to my satisfaction. I would be very interested to hear what you have found.

I would love to know where Craig got his. I assume it was an off the shelf item in the 1970s. I got the impression from Carol in an exchange many months ago that they have spools of the stuff that they got years ago.

Thank you. That's better than most of the stuff that I have found. It is more similar to the stuff that was on my Wixom fairing.
