Replacing vinyl trim

[dennislanier]

I would like to hear from some of you who have actually replaced the vinyl trim on the outside of your Class C. Mine is mildewing on some areas and changing color in other areas (04 Jayco.) I have tried cleaning it with various mildew cleaners, Magic eraser, Awesome, etc to no avail. So my question is, how difficult was it to remove and replace the trim. Any surprises, tips, etc appreciated.

Which vinyl trim? If you are talking about the screw channel cover vinyl - the answer is extremely easy. I just replaced about 120 feet of it.

Yes I think that's it. It is about 1/2 inch wide and fits inside the metal piece around the door and along the side. Do you need to lubricate it or heat it to get it to slide in easier?
