Measuring the Width of Trim on a Trailer to Choose Replacement Roll of Trim

Updated 10/04/2017 | Published 10/03/2017

Question:

I am needing to replace the vinyl trim on my trailer. The aluminum moulding measures 3/4inch in width track to track. However, when I measure the trim currently on the trailer, the trim is 1inch wide when laid flat. Do I need the 3/4inch trim on the 1inch trim? I will need a 100foot roll, white.

You would measure the overall width of the trim so if it is 1 inch on the trailer now then you would want to use 1 inch trim such as # CAM25222. The good thing about this is that even if something occurred and it turns out you need 3/4 you could trim the trim on each side to make it more narrow.
