Abstract: The invention relates according to a first aspect to a sealing strip (11) for vehicle windows and according to a second aspect to a use of thermoplastics for producing such multilayered sealing strips (11), which comprise at least a first, elastic layer (12) made of a thermoplastic elastomer and a second, harder layer (13), the first layer (12) being implemented to exert a sealing function between a construction element (14) of the vehicle and a surface (15,15?) of a windowpane (16) movable in relation to the sealing strip (11), and the second layer (13) being implemented as a visible cover for at least the largest, otherwise visible part of the first layer (12), and the first layer (12) and the second layer (13) being bonded to one another over essentially the entire length of the sealing strip (11). The sealing strips (11) as well as the use according to the invention are characterized in that the second layer (13) is made of a transparent or translucent polyamide.
