Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Now I need to find the edge trim part , went to few shops but couldn't see the right one , were rubber ones but I don't want to risk the melting on the radiator

Think I used rubber edging, rad doesn't get that hot. Can't think where I got it now. Have another bike to do, what supply did you use?

Stil no luck with edge trim sadly , went to a window edge trim shop but they didn't have the diameter to fit properly.
Still looking

You could go the No8 fencing wire path...
Make a frame of No8 wire that is the same size as the radiator, lay that frame on the mesh and cut out mesh so that there's enough to fold over the wire frame. Get it nice and tight then stitch the mesh to the frame with something like fuse wire, doing a stitch that goes round the frame and also stitches the mesh together. Then put some heat resistant tape along the frame edges, like a bias-binding on fabric...
Just a thought...
Just use some zip ties
Try comac.
Should have rolls of edging by the meter to purchase.
Based in palmy but awesome to deal with.

I have a few sources from the USA who will ship cheap and internationally -
They ship mainly stainless steel woven wire mesh and have been a very reliable source for me in the past -

They will also send samples as needed.
