Happy Spring (sort of in VT). I have an 87 C22 and I'd like to replace the original beat-up, brown rub rail with the newer grey one from Catalina Direct. A guy on YouTube made it look pretty easy by soaking it on hot, soapy water and then using a screen tool to work it into the rail. Anyone have any experience or tips on installing these?
Also, I don't want to replace the track for the rub rail but it's kind of beat up and scratched and was planning on spray painting it. Do you think the paint would hold up?
Lastly, several people have posted about dried up or missing caulking around the rub rail and even some leaking through here. Do I just clean out the old dried up caulk and replace it with a silicone type caulk?
Thanks
