TACO Trim & Molding FAQ

Did you know we have a comprehensive information section on our website called Product Knowledge? In this area of the site, we compiled answers to many frequently asked questions, installation tips and more to help you be successful in your TACO product applications.

Weather Seal 

A common question we receive is, “where on my boat can I use Weather Seal?”

Weather Seal – a fantastic product for repairing leaks and squeaks – can be use in a variety of areas onboard, including hatches, live wells, electronic boxes, exterior doors, instrument covers, skylights, toolboxes, windows, cabinets, and storage compartments, to name a few.

The innovative Weather Seal is made of a durable sponge rubber compound specifically designed for the harsh marine environment. This material offers excellent resistance to water absorption, sunlight, and extreme temperature (between -20 to +150 deg. F.). For best performance, the maximum compression recommended is 25 percent of the actual size.

Flex Trim 

Protecting yourself onboard not only means wearing a lifejacket but can also mean covering sharp edges around the boat. That is where our universal Flex Trim is ready to help.

Flex Trim is flexible PVC with internal aluminum clips that provide a lifetime of secure grip. Trims are available to fit most edge thicknesses – providing protection from sharp edges and producing a finished look that conforms to almost any shape.
