RV Roof Tape

I’ve had my RV since new and just purchased Extreme White RV Roof repair tape for the roof seems. Really tired of the Dicore cracking all the time. The guy at camping world said it was the same as Eternabond and would be a permanent fix. The tape comes with a 15 year warranty too. So it must be good right? My questions are for the people that have used the roof tapes for permanent leak repairs (Eternabond or CoFair Extreme tapes).
1. How well has it held up on your rigs?
2. Was it difficult to apply aside from applying proper pressure and having a clean surface?
3. How happy are you with it?
I’ve had my RV parked for a few months and just found a leak that’s only effected a small part of the cabinet at the front cap. My hope is that I can use this stuff as a permanent seal over all the Dicore on the roof. Including vents, skylights, etc.

Thanks in advance for your input!

  • Can't speak for Extreme White RV Roof tape, but I've used Eternabond on all my RVs and been very happy. Good preparation and planning is key, as you mentioned making sure all surfaces are clean and having the right tools (one of those rollers for laying down lineoleum is very useful for getting enough pressure). Start slowly and make sure you correct your line as you go, once the tape is down it is down, and I've had plenty of creases. It doesn't need to look pretty (but nice if it does), as long as it covers all the seams. Don't forget to do any slides too.
  • I have used Eternabond for several years. It stops leaks permanently.
    It's easy to apply and holds up well.
    I have never heard of the tape you purchased. Let us know how it works.
