I would cut the pieces sticking up and the place the new EPDM on over it

Although I do love etranabond

I would do this but not cut off the pieces, just glue them down. when camping world sawed a hole in the roof of my bounder, I got the EPDM patch kit and covered it with same material as the roof was made of.

If I was looking at a used unit and saw it patched up with "scotch tape",I would walk away.

Bumpy,

What do you mean if you saw a used unit patched up with scotch tape? Are you referring to the Eternabond? I just dont want to replace the whole roof as it is an expensive proposition at almost $6,000 however I also dont want it to leak. Thanks in advance.

Thanks everyone for the responses. Should I use lap sealant on the edges?

I agree with Tom/Barb. Reattach the flaps to the roof and cover the damaged area with Eternabond.
Make sure 6" will be wide enough.

Hi,

I unfortunately hit a metal awning and made divots in my epdm room in a line 24 foot long. I was thinking of using eternabond 6 inch x 50 (only using about 24 foot of it to repair (cover the divots)

Anyone have experience with this?

I would get some contact cement, and glue each of those flaps back into place prior to the eternabond application. this will allow the eternabond to lay flat and seal better.

Eternabond is the perfect solution for that.

Will 6" completely cover the widest divot with some room on each side to spare?

it's what I would do
