A whole lot of folks don't like beaded welting. That's been discussed here plenty. If you want to make yourself some excellent anti-squeak gaskets, go to a plumbing supply store and purchase a foot of 1/16 shower pan liner...very tough stuff. It will be 6 feet wide and that's more than enough. Make templates from old file folders and use those to cut your pieces. Paint them black if you wish, but in the AD truck it isn't necessary. They'll last about 1 week past the end of time. Good luck.
