Install caravan window insert trim. Caravan window cover strip maintenance and installation.

After practicing on our caravans other 5 windows I am today removing the old window seal trim and installing brand new bright white stuff! I also conduct some cleaning and basic maintenance. Here's some other similar videos showing techniques used to install the insert / tape / trim..

..note: it took me about a week to do all 8 windows on our Geist LV 535. Got a few hand cramps along the way. All good fun though and well worth the end result. Go for it. Cheers, Steve.

Thankyou for the kind words Barry. Cheers mate.

There's a special tool for fitting that trim, it makes refitting a lot easier

Shame you never did the follow up video on the windows

[@stephenmoore8960]

I hear ya Azza. I've got the equipment, just need a bit of spare time and the confidence to sand off down to the crazing. It will be done one day. Cheers.

I'm just about to do a leaking window on my caravan but cant find any info on putting the actual rubber seal in i.e. is it glued stapled or does it just hold itself in. There are loads of videos showing how to install the cover strip

[@AdamGilbee]

Did you post how to fix crazing in the windows? Cant seem to find it?

[@stephenmoore8960]

Hi Adam. I went ahead with the attempt just after shooting this video. I have all the footage stored on my pc. I haven't posted yet as my results were less than satisfactory. I used an electric sander and started with 40 grit (yes you read correctly - 40 grit) sand paper to try and get down to the crazing and went up to 1200'ish. Then used my polisher with cream. The windows came up nice and polished with all scratches removed but the crazing remained. Im going to try again this summer. I was petrified id never be able to recover from the coarse paper, but after some effort everything was back to normal so ive got the confidence to try again. If im successful i will post.

[@AdamGilbee]

@@stephenmoore8960 I was hoping you had found some magic cure. My research doesn't look good. Scratches seem relatively easy to fix, but crazing around handles seems to be caused by a combination of a chemical reaction with heat and stress caused by fittings. Sounds unfixable. Good job on coverstrip by the way I will give that a go

Do you know where I might find the grey strip for a 20 year old Swift caravan?

[@stephenmoore8960]

Hi Brian, where are you located mate. We're in Australia and use a shop/website dedicated to Euro imports called.. www.importseasy.com.au/contact-us
..if you're outside of Aus all i can suggest is checking Ebay. Sorry i couldn't be of much help - perhaps other viewers have a suggestion if you can advise country of residence. Good luck. Cheers.
