Just Eternabond'ed My Roof

After reading all the posts about this stuff, I ordered some 2" and 4" Eternabond from Amazon. Got around to doing it today, and I have to say it was almost a pleasure putting that stuff down. No scraping, caulking guns or spreading caulk down. I was lucky in that the previous owner, who had my Lexington for only a year, kept it garaged, so the original caulk/sealant was still in great shape.
Just cleaned it with some mineral spirits and layed it down. I believe in preventive maintaince, so doing this before a problem occured was a no-brainer.
For those of you who were thinking of doing this, do it, and avoid the leak problems down the road.

  • No, no pic's. Just follow the directions. It's easy. Just remember that when you lay it down, it's down. Not like regular type tape that you can pull back and re-position. Did it on a warm day with over-cast clowds. Would not want to do it in direct sunlight as it get's hot up there.
    Would definately recomend it on a new unit--it's easier as it's still pretty clean. At least mine was.

  • I did mine about 6 years ago. TT is 9 years old at this point. Dry as a bone. Best investment I ever made and would be one of the first mods I would do on a new unit...

  • I am going to do this but can't decide on how to go about it. Have any pictures?
  • well I did a very stupid thing, it put a ladder up and it scraped two spots on the edge of the roof. so I have to get some and seal the two little spots. the spots are big enough to cause a leak problem this winter. glad I caught it though.
