Molded from UV- and moisture-resistant PVC and fitted with an internal aluminum clip and single gripping tongue, it stays put through temperature swings and outdoor exposure. The textured black pebble finish conceals scrapes and blends with darker assemblies while providing a professional, sealed edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this trim attach and stay secure on thin panels?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is a simple push-on action: the single gripping finger engages the substrate while the internal aluminum clip increases retention.
