RV tech. help on what sealant to use?
I am going to be cutting a hole and installing a new cable entry port on the side of my brand new travel trailer. What do the factories use for a sealant when they install them ? Jack L

I have been using the Geocel ProFlexRV clear sealant on the outside seams. It is a sticky, gooey mess every time.
Has anyone used, or have input on, Rock River 100% RTV Silicone Sealant? Is this a special formula for RVs?
Thank you.
If you're having a problem with the Geocel sealant, I'd suggest to mildly heat the tube before use and only cut the dispensing spout to a small hole. The amount of sealant dispensed is the number 1 problem my guys have with getting a good bead onto a surface. A small bead of sealant can be struck and look good, giving all the protection a guy needs.
