Can anyone shed any light on the possibility of bending roof trims for a flat roof?

Im looking at an external 90° on a 300mm radius. Ideally using a raided edge trim although I reckon a flat trim would be more workable.

A difficult one with a raised edge, as the top part would certainly try to kink upwards.......a flat trim would be much easier.
Best to bend the stuff around a timber former, and applying heat with a hot air gun would help matters greatly.
It could be a good move to use a spare piece of trim for practice!

You can buy it off the roll 300mm wide. I don't follow what you are trying to do but they also do a 90 degree abutment flashing.

If you have to radius the corner then cut the return towards the face at about 20mm intervals (leaving the face intact), fit the trim and then mat, resin and topcoat over the cuts. Easy life.
