Jeff Wexler Posted March 31, 2017 Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Often what is used is a product that is used as an edge to automotive headliner. I know I bought a roll of this edging at auto supply store. It is what Backstage used for the edging around their cart shelves. It is also available as door guard, again, for cars --- I would look around at automotive supply stores or online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Ray Harris Posted March 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2017 Thanks Jeff, I went to the autozone down the street and found "door edge molding" that worked great. In my research I found this stuff called Trim Lok which looks identical to the stuff on the Film Tools shelves I have, both have an aluminum core that can pinch onto whatever your putting it on. Grainger and Amazon sell it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl Wasserman Posted April 1, 2017 Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 Here's the stuff I use for cart trim and for taking the sharp edges off my storage shelving... I can't seem to cut and paste the specific part #, so it's "Plastic Edge Trim with Metal Core, 1/16" - 11/64" Inside Width" https://www.mcmaster.com/#trim-molding/=17044uw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Ray Harris Posted April 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Great this is def cheaper than the Trim Loc stuff through Grainger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomsound Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 I used the door trim as well. It uses a heat sensitive adhesive that for me, got messy down here in Florida. I've had to peel it off and clean the residue several times. I tried silicone and so far it's been fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
