Rain channel question

The rain channels on my truck are pretty much gone and left rust streaks. How do i replace them, meaning are they reproduced or are they like a caulking material? I am talking about the stuff inside the gutter, you know the the metal strip inside the channel. My cab is not totally rusted through but showing signs that it is not too far from it. How do I prevent it? thanks

After you clean out the rust, try using 3M Drip Check Sealer.

Pumkin, do a search on the board for "drip rail". I did and there are a ton of past posts with lots of info on drip rail sealers and how to remove old sealer.
