I have a round basin in my bathroom that came without a finished ring
for that overflow area near the top of the basin. I tried Lowes, no
luck. I went to a plumbing supply store locally, no luck. Does anyone
know where I can get one. The one that I replaced still has it, but its
oval shape and won't fit the round one that i have now. I bought this
bowl awhile back ( years ) but only lately noticed the edges of that
overflow are getting rusty, dirty looking.

The last couple of times I replaced the kind with the finish ring, I
got ones that are "self finishing." They simply set in the opening. Had
a nice big flange, and you set it in caulking that came with the sink.
Then, run a bead around the edge and wipe it to a nice contour. Took
more time to take the old one out than anything else. New ones were
ceramic, versus the old cast iron and enamel style.
