    Based on this I would be calling them and find out what went wrong???

    With over 9000 packages sold and no reported failures, we are confident that the Safe-T-Plex RV Roof Coating System is one of the best in the industry. Because we use only superior ingredients in our formulations, our product is not the cheapest on the market, however, if a durable, lasting, maintenance-free roof surface is what you are seeking, consider investing a little extra to get the ultimate in roof protection.
  • I also used the Brentwood Coatings Safe T Plex product, on my 5th wheel trailer. I installed it in March, 2015. I had my first bubbling problem in March of 2016. They sent me instructions and replacement material for the areas affected.
    Then in November of 2016, several different areas on my roof started to bubble/blister. I emailed the company and sent photos. I have not received any response this time! Further investigations show the website is gone and phone numbers disconnected! Looks like they have gone out of business and left us with a failed product.:(
    I'm currently searching the web for a replacement product, looking at www.epdmcoatings.com.
    Anyone else?

    I am a installer of the safe-t-plex and the owner of Brentwood Coatings is the same owner of Superior Polymers out of Canada,
    Brentwood Coatings went out of business....
  • Be sure the FlexSeal stuff has UV protection. Some of the spray stuff apparently does not.

    With that said, I did use it on a stick built house as a temporary repair and it worked as advertised until a permanent repair was done.
