Flexible Floor Profile

[smokie899]

Guys has anyone ever used a flexible for profile. Doing a job soon where the customer wants a room done half tile, half wooden floor.
The customer wants a curved finish and has specified that they want a flexible floor profile from a company called Cayrus world of finishing as they have a good colour match for their floor.
From what I've read you heat the profile up and bend to shape. (Sounds to easy lol)
Never used anything like it so wondering if anyone else has, how easy to use, quality and durability etc.
Sorry can't do a link but it's advertised on eBay.
Cheers

Nope customer WANTS this. I've told her its plastic and with three small children and a room full of large toys its will eventually just get scraped/damaged. But THEY are always right lol, so it's going down.

FLEXIBLE FLOORING PROFILE,Transition Profile Strip,Floor Trim Threshold - 3m

Looks pretty simple to install to be fair, get the bath filled up and should be a doddle. It's not the prettiest of profiles but, might blend a bit better if it matches the floor.

No me either, the only bendable ones I've seen are the aluminium ones that have the slots cut into them, I think schluter do a couple.
