Keep in mind that the stripe is vinyl and it is very likely that whats on your boat has faded. I doubt a patch would match. :roll: sorry I'd just do the whole thing, the end result will be like new. All wax and chalky film has to be removed. One of my least favorite but most repeated sayings is...

...brace to keep the walkaround to deck joint elevated as it was wearing through the deck. In doing this work, the trim choice was the Grady vinyl trim. I had looked at a lot of newer Grady's and they all use this stuff now and it was the only thing I could find that would make the bends and...

Sorry, this is the vinyl/plastic/rubber trim that goes around the cockpit where the sides meet the deck. The inside corners are going from 90deg to 45deg pulling away, looks like the trim is shrinking with age. Looks like they are glued and screwed. All the older Grady's that I've seen have this.

A pic would help to understand and then might generate more feedback. Is this the aluminum painted trim or the stick on vinyl trim?

...on gelcoat there's way less concern about the dilution ratio. Heck, you can use acetone on the gelcoat, if you want (not the vinyl or vinyl trim, though!!!). I also just recently found out that even a major vinyl manufacturer (Morbern) recommends bleach (diluted) for mold/mildew on vinyl...

Have had great success using 4200 quick cure for regluing the vinyl trim in places where I can use clamps, etc. Having a real problem with the "inside" curves on the aft deck of my 272, especially the curves around the aft seat/battery access hatch. The trim is 4-5 years old and continues...

...Not sure why they stopped using it as mine was still pretty good after 20+ years of weather exposure. I see that Grady is now using a vinyl trim on the new boats. In some cases, it looks good, but I have found it to peel off or look bad where it meets a transitional piece. However, I might...

A little late for my suggestion but maybe a winter project ,I removed my dash and side panels and took them to a body shop and had them painted off white GW and got rid of the brown ,painted the wood trim black , you can purchase vinyl paint also ,really improved the boat .

Gary, I use 3m products. cost more, but seem to work well. you can get 3m vinyl/trim glue at most advance auto stores. also, home depot sales a variety of vinyl/plastic glues that will work. just look at the label to find what is used for clean up. acetone is the most common cleaner. be...

Under the cockpit bolsters. a long piece of white vinyl trim has come unglued. What do you guys Rec to re-glue it back up there?

the F200 should be the same as F225 and F250's of similar vintage. I use a hi-cap manual vacuum pump which usually can suck and hold the oil from both engines. works very well and very easy, once you get the pump going it continues to suck the oil out. used with Yamaha dip stick adaptor. to...

The trim is thin so it warps pretty bad at times. Moer screws would help but would start to look bad. New boats are using some type of vinyl flex trim but thicker toe rail out of starboard. I did notice some slight warp from the grady toe rail but not enough to worry about.

Hi guys... new to the forum and considering my first Grady. Thanks for your input. So I'm looking at a Grady Marlin 300... 2005, twin Yam F250s, 670 hours. Boat sits on a Performance aluminum 15000lb triple axle, discs on all axles. Boat is in fair condition, from what I can see. It's overall...

I'm having the same problem with the trim. I called GW and they told me it was a vinyl trim (not sure if that makes a difference with adhesives). I was told that it had a tape on the backside that made it adhere to the surface and it was available through my GW dealer. I haven't done...

Silverlining, I think my 252 is same layout as yours in regards to the helm area. My water fill is on the floor at the helm, just right of the wheel. The panel under the helm, but to the right is removable and is the access for the wiring running from under the deck up to the topside area and...

Hi everyone, new to this site and glad to be here, I have just purchased a 1984 sailfish 25' with twin OMC 2.6 seadrives, Iknow, I know ! I will get a lot of flack for this motor/drive combo, but it only has 400 hours on it and seems to be in pretty good shape, having said that there are a few...

What product do you esteemed gentlemen propose to glue down the vinyl trim that's peeled away from under the cockpit helm?

Want to wash the cuddy cushion fabric on my 2002 265 express. Cushions have vinyl trim. Has anyone done this and if so how? Thought that a machine washer might be too aggressive.

I have an older Seafarer and the rubber/vinyl trim around cabin windows is shinking and leaking. Are these trim pieces still available, and do you think they are unique to Grady, or a generic type material I can find?

Hi - I pulled the tank out of my 268 Islander this winter for the purpose of adding a second one in front of it. I am in the process of having two new ones built by SP tanks in NJ. They have the rubber padding fill hoses, vent hoses, clamps etc. (and a ton of knowledge). My old tank was also a...
