thanks, yeah, I had a mobile RV tech come out saturday and fix the trim..charged me $60.00 but it looks great...he put two layers of putty tape on it, and put one extra screw towards the end to seal any gap on the end..he then put silicone on the top and the bottom at my request... as far as the darco tape i am in contact with primetime, i am having them send me a roll of darco tape and I will just add extra darco as needed.. i dont care if i have to do it every other month..no biggie..
camper is on seasonal site starting next week and i ALWAYS put slide in when we leave for the week..less chance of water damage that way.. but i will add darco strip every now and then as it frays..its only a one inch wide darco on it right now...its on each side of the slide...primetime says the wood is waterproof from factory on bottom and sides and darco was only added as a second layer of protection and is not needed..there suggestion was to just snip off the fraying pieces as its not needed.. I rather just add new darco over the fraying pieces...looks easy enough.
