Roll-on bed-liner roof project
I actually posted this over at another forum after I started the project but figured I'd come over here again and share here too. Forgive me if the wording seems awkward, it was multiple posts on the...

Hi,
I coated my RV roof a few years ago, and it was with white Herculiner from JcWhitney. Some of the coating was applied really thick, and is still in good shape. Other sections where a little thin and started to come off. I guess it might also be bad prep work as I did not wash the roof really well all over, just some parts of it got washed really well.
Now I am going to coat it with 5 gallons of a EPDM coating that is a two part that must be mixed about 1 hour before application. I need to get my RV out of expensive covered parking and put it in a friend's ranch, out in the open. Cheaper parking spot.
I used about 4 gallons of Herculiner. I had to buy special gloves that are chemical resistant, and the xylonene (SP?) in the Herculiner will disolve normal gloves quickly.
I ended up using a coffee cup to dip into the 1 gallon container, pour it onto the roof, then move it around with a paint brush. I did not try the rollers that came in the kit to use for truck bed applications.
I am still really happy with the herculiner around my solar panel mounts, where it was applied really thick. It is just other sections where it was applied really thin that are starting to peal off.
