I assume I just need to get a bead of caulk up there but was wondering what type you all suggest? I also have some water coming in from behind the Outdoor kitchen door flap, and I would...

    Can I use a non-silicon sealant to replace silicon caulking

    I have a 2006 17B Escape. I think the previous owner used silicon caulking to seal the top edge of the awning, where the painted metal strip meets the fiberglass roof. The sealant needs to be replaced. My questions are: 1) Can I use Dicor's Self-leveling Lap Sealant after I remove the silicon...

    What is your preferred Sealant/Caulking?

    I don’t mean to start a war of silicone people vs Sitka-Flex vs 3M Products. But I have heard many different things about many different products. I have used Sitka-Flex and finds that it grabs and holds dirt causing it to look grimy, 3M 3200 it stays tacky but is a pain to remove and finally...

    Fairly urgent question - where do you caullk the back corners?

    New Amerilite 241RB Issues like tissues

    I’ve owned 3 other RV’s but this is my first New travel trailer. My neighbor has a 21’ model similar to ours that we liked, and we got a good deal in December 2017, so we bought a new one for a bit less than we were planning to pay for a used one. Since it was bitter cold, I didn’t do a once...

    How shall I caulk you- let me count the ways...

    After reading hours of Hi-Lo and other forums and watching videos I think I've learned that- 1) a traveling RV is subject to the forces of an earthquake and tornado 2) preventing the dreaded leaks from those forces is difficult and time consuming 3) preventing leaks is all important 4) using...

    2007 378 shower leaks

    Took our first showers in our "new" 378 yesterday, and had to mop the floor afterwards. I'll re-caulk even though it looks okay, but was wondering if anyone has had to resolve the same problem.
