Hatch Trim

[paulfredricks]

The trim around the hatches on our 2004 Travelstar hybrid are looking pretty bad, and I haven't been able to get them clean. The thought is to replace the stripping, but I can't seem to find what I need. I hope it's still available.

Here is a picture of one of the hatches, and a side look at the trim. Any ideas where I can find it, or how I can make it look like new again?

I thought that looked odd.

Mine definitely has the screws UNDER the screw cover.

Since I now know that it's called screw cover, I assume that it shouldn't have any screws showing which mine does. So I've decided to replace it. Should make a big difference in the look. Thanks all!

I have similar stuff around our door and when I couldn't find it at the local rv shop I tried a mr clean magic eraser. Cleaned it up like new.

Screw cover! Those are the magic words I was looking for. Google it and there it is! Thank you!

It's called screw cover. Take a sample to your dealer because there's several different sizes. He should have it in stock.

I'll try those ideas. I'm in CT too (Bethel) so I'm not too far away. I'll try the bleach spray first.

Thanks!

I had a similar problem with the trim on my old Aerolite TT. once or twice a year I would also: spray, wait , brush and rinse. Repeating sometimes also.

This is what I used http://www.starbrite.com/item/mildew-stain-remover?category_id=570

In my neck of the woods, hemlock Hill rv, Southington, Ct sells it and maybe Van's rv in South Windsor
