Looks like I won't be replacing the roof membrane! I was re-gluing some trim pieces that fell off and had the 5200 handy. I have 3 tubes of 4200 (or 4000UV) in the freezer, but I like the idea of 5200, even though I know I won't be able to take the screws out.
I recently bought a Harbor Freight 18 volt drill. If I hadn't had that I wouldn't have been able to do the job. I found a big piece of cardboard, and stuck each screw into the end of the sealant tube. I put 10 screws at a time on the cardboard and climbed on the roof. I took 10 out and put 10 back at a time. I left the drill on the roof. Next time, I moved the ladder and started over. It went pretty quick like that.
