The sealant thread

[Brown Lantern]

Good, it seems like we are all in agreement about the windows. It shouldn't need maintenance unless there is a leak.
I did use silicone to reseal two lights on the back panel. When I removed them to clean away the old silicone I found they had made five screw holes just to get two screws to attach the lights. They were all stripped so I had to go up a size in screws to reattach. The reason I used silicone was to comply with customer service and not give them any excuses to deny a warranty claim. When the warranty is up I'm going with a Geocel product everywhere.
Oh, I found out plastic razor blades work great for removing silicone. Then I used Goof Off Silicone Remover.

Ah, the first sentence, a true optimistic approach to an inevitability.
They'll leak sooner or later. After each rain I check around each window, just to stay on top of things. Three windows so far and many more to check.

Can anyone identify the sealant on the roof (not the Eternabond I used on the Solar Panel)? I would also like to match the color! I looked on the DICOR website but could not find any info.

Old Post. But I was searching for PVC roof.

Voila.



We are looking to upgrade our TT. Looking at Forest River Surveyor Luxury models. They have PVC roofs. I hate cleaning my existing roof every 3 to 6 months.....ughh


So...........anybody have any experience with RV PVC roofs?


Thanks.
