Hi all
Can anyone tell me please what size Herzim strip should be used around the bottom skirt of my Coachman Wanderer, same van as Amara range?
I've started to replace mine as it had shrunk. Bought some same width as old stuff which seemed to be 14.5mm
Now I've started the job and pulled all the old strip out, the new stuff (although it is same size as old strip) is too loose in the aluminium rail and would most likely come out again.
It looks as though someone has been bodging and put the old stuff in with mastic behind it. I've ordered some larger samples on line, 15mm, 15.5mm and 17mm but just wondering if anyone can confirm correct size for me.

The strip shrinks in breadth as well as in length, I measured mine but the dealer gave me some different sizes before he would sell me any, mine is a Elddis, so I can't help with the size of yours.

It looks as though someone has replaced it before and used a smaller size strip, it shouldnt have mastic behind it to hold it in. It shouild be a tight fit in the aluminium rail.

For anyone having this problem in the future the correct size Herzim strip for Coachman Amara and Coachman Wanderer derivatives is 17mm
