I've continued along with sealing the roof, sealing is done on all the cross seams and today I broke out the Eternabond Webseal to seal the aluminum trim rail that runs the length of the trailer.
Here is the Webseal, the roller I use to press it down, and the utility knife to cut it:

The webseal is a lot more compliant than the Eternabond Roofseal that I used for the standing seams and around the vents. It is easy to get it around any contours and screwheads. This is the front lap seam for comparison:

One edge sealed and one more to go:

As probably noted, I'm taking on the roof in small stages. This is to keep my burn-out quotient down and to make sure I don't have any convealecsing because of standing on a ladder for extended periods. While off the ladder, I've been working on the shelf that spans the dinette area's front wall. The 16" shelf will hold stereo gear and speakers.
