Dicor roof sealant is messy

Well today I got up on the roof to make sure all was well before we take our next trip. Not too shabby. Needs to be cleaned but could be worse.

I did notice a little bit of the old sealant at the back seem was starting to peel up a little so I starting pulling to see if it would pull off in a little area but of course 30 minutes later I pretty easily had the entire back seem of sealant off. So, time to put some dicor self leveling lap sealant on once the old stuff was completely cleaned off.

I guess my comment and or question is this. It doesn't have to look pretty right? As long as it goes on and doesn't leak? I have used the stuff once before and it never fails. It always looks messy and never as good as the original sealant looked and it ends up all over my hands. Is there a secret to stopping it from oozing once it starts!? That stuff is a menace but it "seems" to work. ;)
