Title: '52 de Ville stainless gutter/drip rail removal ... any tips?
Post by: Macabry on June 16, 2021, 04:37:49 PM
Howdy,
I'm contemplating removal of my drip rail/gutter strip from the de Ville... I've got 3 questions:

1. It looks like fairly common C-section tensioned stainless trim ???  ... is it ?

2. If so, I'd normally find a joint and pry it from the bottom of the strip to "pop" it over and off the roof drip rail ... is this correct method for this model/year?

3. Are there any attachment points on the strip that use hidden screws or other clip types?

I'd really appreciate any input from anyone whose tackled this before ... I'd hate to damage it 😲
