Hi
There's a local shop I would do a few things for - they've got a job in now and the customer is looking for an exact match to an existing frame they have. It looks to be a polcore moulding. I've attached a few images they've sent. I've checked the Mainline site but nothing seems to match.
Can anyone advise please - if it doesn't exist I don't mind but I thought I'd check it for them.
The colour in the photos aren't right, it's more of a silver with a dull grey bit in the middle
Cheers
Steven

Re: Moulding ID
Matching exactly the same gold finish might be a bit of a challenge, maybe it would be possible to produce a reasonably good copy by making a stacked moulding frame and hand finishing it to suit. Just a thought!

Re: Moulding ID
Thanks for the reply Mark but I have no intention of recreating that with stacked moldings This particular shop always wants stuff on the cheap too so there's no hope they'd entertain the thought of the cost involved

Thanks what I already had figured.

Re: Moulding ID
Here is one that is a similar shape from Simons, it looks like the siver has been discontinued,
