RV Roof Replacement - Sealing Penetrations
I am getting ready to replace the rubber roof on my Jayco Eagle 263RKS and I have a question/opinion to ask.
When I go to re-install the roof vents, plumbing vents, etc., do I use Eternabond tape over all of the screws and edges or the dicor self leveling sealant?
Of course I will be using the butyl tape under all of the vents mentioned above.
I have seen many videos on people replacing their roof and have seen it done both ways. I have already used Eternabond in the past and am a huge fan of it. I have also used the sealant as well on repairs and maintenance, but it seems to crack up in about a year causing more sealant to be applied.
What are your thoughts?
