I can usually come up with generic material that will work.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

vanscottbuilders Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Steve,If you could post a cross-section, as Rob asks, I would appreciate it.I'm in the same boat, looking for the same stuff.My understanding is that the contour window doesindeed use the same gasket molding as the flat window.Thanks,Paul Van Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
