Question
QUESTION: Where can I buy? All the jobers and moble home dealers have no idea. Have tryed all lumber yards along with Lowe's and Home Depot. It's in the system but they can't purchace, neither can I find or purchase. Need really bad. Didn't know that 1/2 -5/8's was only type avaiable when I relined complete trailer in 3/8. Can you give me a company name with whom I can order from?

ANSWER: I am not sure what exactly you are looking for or trying to use it for.

If you can give me a few more details I can ask around.

QUESTION: I have put up 3/8 sheetrock drywall over existing paneling and or sheetrock and when I come to doors or ends of cabinets the ends of the sheetrock are exposed. Even painting it doesn't seal or prevent it from pealing or powdering. The j-channel will cover and protect the cut ends, where molding only covers, but doesn't hold in place or retain integrity of the sheetrock. Most trailer companies use this stuff to put around hidden access doors or something that has to be taken down or opened ocassionally.

Answer
Hi Mike,

I must admit I have never used this product. I have only worked on a few trailers and they had paneling. 3/8 drywall is not common either which may be part of the problem. I will ask around and see what I can find out.
Will the 1/2" not do the job with some caulking?
