Rubber roof recoat, Problem Solved

We have A 1999 National Tradewinds and know it needs a roof recoat. Is it a EPDM rubber roof and has anyone had this project done by others or did you do it yourself? I know there are several products out there but which one would be best to use? I am in the process of cleaning and resealing everything on top and along the side roof edge.

Have looked at utube but before I buy something I wanted to get your input if you might have some info that might be helpful.

Thanks in advance. Arnold

Just a quick reply on my rubber roof recoat. Took about two weeks taking off the old caulk on everything and putting on new caulk. Put tape across the front seam and then three coats of Hengs on the top. Two gallons did the job on my 37ft MH. Putting all covers back on and walla, job is done. Thanks for the input. Arnold

    We used liquid roof had to use primer first. Got it on then freak shower caused us to have to recoat. Looks good. This was on 2006 Jayco 5th wheel. We have a couple of unopened quarters left over if interested.

    I recoated the roof on our 1996 Southwind using Heng's Rubber Roof Coating. It needs no primer. 2 1/2 gallons did two light coats on 30' of roof.
    It's holding up well and is easy to apply.
