Whether that is how to describe it is debatable! In rebuilding
Navarre (H28) I have insufficient usable trim to apply to the top of the windscreen. Can anyone tell me where I could find this item. There is simply none available in Guernsey. Is there a suitable replacement, say in hard white rubber, plastic or stainlss?
Grateful for any help

The white rubber found on the top of the fantome and spearfish screen (and some 31s I think) is obtainable from the portmere rubber co in southampton.

I have a similar problem which I will need to resolve soon. I suspect the only answer is to drill and fit suitable lengths of half-round brass strip and then take them off and get them chrome plated. Has anyone got a better idea?

Dear John Boggis.
I referred to Porthome Rubber Company and they have no idea what I am talking about. So I drew a blank but thanks anyway.

Very odd. Portmere certainly used to stock the extrusion under the name Spearfish rubber. It has been mentioned on this forum too.

Last year I replaced the rubber on my Spearfish screen, and as John confirms, it came from Portmere on 02380223628,I have just spoken to Anne, and she confirms that they have a roll of Spearfish rubber in stock....for what it is worth I have the old rubber from my screen at home....
