All I've done so far is mow the lawn. Today is a day of rest after doing a leak test and giving half of the rig 4 coats of RMP3 yesterday.
PaulJ2 posted a great idea for doing a leak test if you have a FanTastic fan and it worked better than I expected. The procedure is to close up the rig as much as possible. Close all windows, vents and put the vehicle A/C control on re-circulate. Set the FanTastic fan on intake at high speed. I gave it some time to build up pressure and then washed the whole RV with a strong solution of Dawn. It even blew bubbles out of the clearance lamp weep holes.

So where were your 'leaks' at, that you need to fix?

Sounds like a Prime idea.

Actually all of the bubbles that appeared, with the exception of one, were indications that the unit was pressurized. Huge bubble or two coming from the window weep holes and from the clearance lamp weep holes. That indicates that the holes are doing their job. The only one that really concerns me is a bubble that came from below a mysterious, almost full length, trim that was installed a few inches below the gutter rail on the left side. This trim was placed on top of the graphics, almost completely covering it. I feel that it's purpose is to cover a long break in the siding. It could serve no other purpose. Many months ago I started to remove it and after a couple of feet I could find nothing odd so I replaced the trim and applied ProFlex RV on the seam. However, the rest of the seam is silicone so when I start a new tube of ProFlex I'll pull the silicone off and seal it correctly. However, since no bubbles appeared above this secondary rail it must mean that there is an opening behind that thing.

I must add that the RMP3 sure does attract attention. My neighbor across the street came over and asked "What in the world did you do?" He even touched it to see if it was a wet shine.
