Eternabond over uncured Dicor lap sealant
I put Dicor self leveling sealant over the rear roof joint and all screw heads that runs across back of my Nash 22H trailer. It cured for about 2 1/2 hours or so while I worked elsewhere. I couldn't l...

Thanks for all the advice. I should mention the tape is in pure contact with the roof membrane on one edge, the metal siding on the other, each with about 1/2" contact along the edge. If it was just stuck to uncured eternabond I would have removed it.
I'm thinking about making a natural oven by laying black across the edge. Black what though, I have some plastic tarp, some floor mats, maybe I'll lay both across the seam tomorrow and see if temperature increase will speed up drying.
So I'm the first to make this mistake it appears. I've done a search and no one else asked this.
The problem with removing it is I have done such a good job on the side where eternabond ends and the sides are curing. It's parked indoors until tomorrow morning.
Any ideas on the oven idea to really get some heat to it. Here in Idaho its 60 day, 30 nights for next couple weeks .
Some sealants cure funny, they need air at first to evaporate some chemicals and that's when they skin over and the remaining stuff has no access to air and they still cure. I was really hoping Dicor was this way and someone had actually done this. But no one thinks more harm than good so far, so I'll leave it for now and razor cut the ends if I'm forced to remove it. Thanks.
