Pauley Plastics color matches vinyl trims to 100+ manufacturers nationwide. Our UV-resistant colorants prevent fading, and we offer custom matching for vinyl, fiberglass and metal.

Yes, our vinyl Flat Trim products are designed and manufactured to be suitable for both interior and exterior applications. The high-quality vinyl material used in our Flat Trim is engineered to withstand various environmental factors, ensuring long-lasting performance and durability.

For exterior use, our vinyl Flat Trim is resistant to moisture, humidity, and temperature changes. It will not rot, warp, or corrode over time, making it an ideal choice for door and window trim exposed to the elements. The vinyl material is also UV-resistant, preventing fading and discoloration caused by prolonged sun exposure.

When used in interior applications, our vinyl Flat Trim offers a clean, modern look that complements various décor styles. It is easy to clean and maintain, resisting dirt, dust, and stains. 

We offer a wide range of sizes and dimensions for our vinyl Flat Trim products to accommodate various door and window applications. Our goal is to provide you with the flexibility to find the perfect fit for your specific project requirements.

In terms of length, our vinyl Flat Trim products are available in standard 12, 14 and 16 foot  lengths. These sizes are designed to minimize waste and provide easy handling during installation. If your project requires longer or shorter lengths, we can accommodate custom orders to meet your specific needs.

The thickness of our vinyl Flat Trim is consistently maintained at 0.055” ( +/-.005”), ensuring a uniform and durable product that is easy to work with and install.

Our vinyl Flat Trim products are designed for easy installation and do not require professional assistance. While we sell to both homeowners and professionals, it's important to have the right tools on hand for a successful installation. With the proper equipment, you can achieve a seamless, polished look for your windows without the need for hired help. However, if you are unsure about your ability to complete the installation or lack the necessary tools, we recommend consulting with a professional to ensure the best results.

To successfully install our vinyl Flat Trim products, you'll need a few essential tools and materials:

Cleaning Agents: You'll need isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and water to clean and prepare the surface before installation.

Cutters: A sharp utility knife or scissors will be necessary to cut the trim to the desired length.

Measuring Tape: To ensure accurate measurements and a precise fit, you'll need a reliable measuring tape.

Optional: Roller: While not required, using a roller can help ensure a strong bond and smooth appearance by pressing the trim firmly against the surface.

To keep your vinyl Flat Trim products looking great and lasting long, follow these cleaning and maintenance tips:

Mild Soap and Warm Water: For regular cleaning, use a mild soap solution and warm water. This gentle approach is the safest way to maintain your trim's appearance.

Soft Scrub: In our opinion, Soft Scrub is the best vinyl cleaner for post-installation maintenance. Its non-abrasive formula effectively cleans without damaging the trim.

Magic Eraser: For removing scuff marks or tougher stains, a magic eraser can be a helpful tool. Gently rub the affected area to restore the trim's appearance.

Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use harsh chemicals like acetone on your vinyl Flat Trim. These substances can deteriorate the adhesive and cause damage to the trim itself.

We ship our products nationwide using select carriers. The shipping time will depend on your location's distance from our facility in Southern California. However, in most cases, you can expect your order to arrive within 6 business days or less.

Please note that while we strive to process and dispatch orders promptly, Pauley Plastic cannot guarantee exact shipping times. Unforeseen circumstances such as Acts of God, including but not limited to hurricanes, snow storms, tornadoes, road closures, or strikes, may cause delays beyond our control.

Rest assured that we work closely with our trusted shipping partners to ensure your order reaches you as quickly as possible. If you have any concerns about your order's shipping status, please don't hesitate to contact our customer support team for assistance.

To ensure your vinyl trim maintains its quality, it's essential to store it properly. Choose a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area with temperatures between 50°F and 86°F (10°C and 30°C). Lay the trim flat to prevent warping or distortion, using supports when stacking multiple pieces. Cover the trim with a clean cloth or plastic sheet to protect it from dust and dirt, and keep it away from direct sunlight, solvents, and chemicals to avoid discoloration or damage. Regularly inspect the stored trim for any signs of damage, such as cracks or warping. If you receive coiled trim, remove it from the packaging and store it flat immediately upon receipt to prevent damage. By following these guidelines, you can ensure your vinyl trim remains in optimal condition until you're ready to use it. For more information, find storage tips here.
