Just got done using Dicor Ultra seal primer with a 1 inch brush and Dicor ultra seal self leveling caulk on TCs TPO roof cabover seam and it came out ok but after 7 years getting tired of using Dicor. Anyone use Eternabond instead for vents and seams on roof? Pros and cons?
I've heard good and bad with EB. But I suspect the bad has something to do with improper prep/install. However, It seems REALLY difficult to remove and often damages the rubber roof when attempting to do so...so I hear.
Been doing a lot of reading on sealants and related stuff lately. It seems lap sealant is specifically peddled to the consumer to only last 2-3 years. So I have to ask...what do builders use for sealing windows, holes and other stuff that see the same sunlight and weather as RV's? They can't possibly reseal every 2-3 years.
This guy seems to know what he's talking about. I like the idea of "tooling" the sealant to get better adhesion. He claims you should get 15-20 years if done properly. He says you'll wonder why you ever used lap sealant after using Sika for the roof. He pretty much says what I always thought about "RV" marketed sealants and products in general. Don't spend too much money on sealants
