Andrew,

Thanks heaps for the info and the link. I know I've had mine hit end of travel and start to chatter. I'll be a lot more careful from now on.

Ours is mounted on a 40' container in the back yard, so easy to clean with an extendable pole and soft pad. I do it every now and again when I think of it. No, when my wife reminds me. Definite...

I've always thought along the same lines as Peter... that some larger look windows may have been cut to fit the outer moulding. I considered it when I did mine recently but it looked as though the camber would be less conducive to a good seal. I stuck with easy.
