Well, you'all have convinced me. I now know there will be a sizeable amount of Eternabonding in my not too distant future. Sounds like the way, if I plan to keep this trailer for a long time (and I do). No more dicor.
Now, where is the best place to buy the stuff? Probably be needing 2 and 4 inch rolls. Best prices, good selection, etc?
Before you go taping everything shut up there, consider the possibility of replacing roof vents, or any roof fixture (as I have done many times). Dicor self leveling sealant is a ton easier to remove than that tape is..
That tape is fine for seams or repairing permanent problems..
just my $0.02
Maybe that's a point to consider.
Anyway I am more concerned with what's going on at the roof/side junctions, and root/front and roof/rear junctions. I might as well make those permanent.
Plus, the holes through the roof (vents, etc.) are a lot easier for me to access and visualize, and I feel confident I can keep up with the caulking there. But I like the idea of the permanence of Eternabond and it might be worth it there too. If I need to replace a dome or vent with eternabond couldn't I just cut all the way through the tape and rubber and cover it with a larger strip of eternabond? - pdoggExplorer

Best Materials used to be very competitive. I don't know if they still are. I'll add this: Eternabond products are just plain drop-dead-good!
I have purchased about 6 or 8 rolls from Best Materials, they have the best selection. But for just a roll of 4 or 6 inch Amazon is the best deal I found lately. - Jim-LindaExplorer IIBe sure to get the heavy metal roller to apply the tape.
Jim - westendExplorerGot mine at Best Materials.

- eHoeflerExplorer IIAwhile back I bought 4 4" rolls and 12 tubes of caulk, self leveling and regular off EBay for $250 delivered.
- powderman426ExplorerI found my local roofing supply co had it about a cheap as anyone. $55 for a Roll of four inch.
- BB_TXNomadLots of places to buy it. Google eternabond and do some price shopping.
- 2-MTnestersExplorerHere ya go. Eternabond Tape. Make sure you clean the area really good where the tape is to be applied. Good luck.
