Whats the deal with the plastic? Seems you could get angle iron from Home Depot and end up with a much more durable retainer and a 8 foot section only costs $10 for the stuff I was using. |

It's pretty simple stuff and not decorative at all. It does have a nice rounded corner and is pretty thick (probably 1/8"), which is something I guess. I could have bought an L-bracket and spray painted it or something (I wanted black) but it never really crossed my mind until I already ordered it. |

I was thinking you were using a corner protector (those plastic L shaped things you put on walls). |
