3M Marine Sealants for Campers
Having come from the boating world, is there a reason folks don't use the 4200/5200 marine sealants from 3M? They last years and are proven sealants. They can be tough to remove but isn't that the poi...

Different principals.
Rv panels are sealed between the joints, while you don't have loose joints in boating.
I agree that most of RV is using the cheapest stuff they can find on the market.
Look at bathroom faucet. Even Section 8 housing would not allow such.
If you take a look at new RV - they don't have sealers on trims. Usually they come on later, when factory seal behind turns junk.
The sealers sold by Camping World are pretty good. I can't compare them to 3M, but when I am at Camping World, I will not seek marine sealer.
Thanks for the tip anyway.
If I can find them on the net for good price- I will definitely order some.
EDIT fond them for $16 in West Marine. Lot of reviews about nozzles coming apart. This is not 3M I remember from the past.
