First tip is to ditch the silicone. Silicone does not work on RVs. The constant flexing on an RV will cause the silicone to open up very small spots for water to get through. Nothing else will ever stick to silicone once it is on your RV. Scrape all of the silicone off and use Dicor and Eternabond tape for a lasting seal. Eternabond tape was originally made to seal underwater lines while they were still underwater. It is rather expensive but works.
