Re: window frame inner and outer black rubber. how to replace or tidy up?
Hello @ab123
It is difficult to tell if it is a rubber seal or deteriorated silicone. I suggest doing a bit of investigation and see if it is a silicone sealant or a rubber seal. If it is a rubber seal and is falling apart, I suggest cleaning the gap out and filling it with Selleys 310g Black Roof And Gutter Silicone Sealant.
It appears that the finish on the aluminium has worn down and it would be extremely difficult to find a matching colour. I can only suggest painting the entire frame a new colour, but this would mean that the rest of the window frames of the house will need to be painted as well for uniformity.
If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
