Scottpat Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 I need some help and or information on a type of trim board I have never seen It has been used on a home that has Hardy plank siding on it. A critter, most likely a squirrel has been gnawing on sections of it. The inside of the board is a hard white almost crystalline material. I have no idea what it is. Any ideas??

It's hard & white, but I'm not sure I'd describe it as crystalline. http://www.azek.com/viewProduct.php?id=9 - Jim Katen, Oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped by a supply store that stocks Azek and it is nothing like what I found on this home. Azek had very little texture to it on the cut ends. The stuff on this home had just about the density and texture of fine pumice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Hi Scott, Is it a newer home? Maybe it's HardiTrim. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Fypon? http://www.fypon.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottpat Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 I thought at first it was Hardi Trim, but it is white. All of the Hardi trim I have seen has had a tan color on the inside when it is cut. It is not Fypon, that is just like plastic. Heck I don't have a clue on this one. It is one of those I don't know days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmettoinspect Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 PVC??? Do not know the correct name of the product but I saw some PVC based trim in Lowes the other day. It was textured like a hardi trim is and hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottpat Posted November 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 It was Fypon..... I got with the owner and he put me in touch with the builder. First time I had ever seen this product. Squirrels sure do love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
