What is a good clear sealant?

We finally brought home our new Grey Wolf 26BH! As I do with any camper I get, new or used, I want to reseal around the windows and seams. The problem I have this time is it has black window frames and a darker exterior than I'm used to. In the past, I've used Quad sealant as recommended by a dealer, but it was a white caulk. That will not look good on this trailer. Does anyone make a good clear sealant for windows and seams? Black may also work, but would like clear.

Thanks!

    Somewhat dated response on my part but HEREis an option for a good clear thermoplastic sealant. Sonolastic 25

    Thanks, I didn't realize it was available in clear. I'll check that out also. Is it non-silicon in clear?

    Great! Thanks everyone! I have a few weeks before our first trip to start masking and sealing!

    The makers of Eternabond now make and sell Eternacaulk in clear, black and white. Google it. It is $9.05 per tube. I bet it is good.
    Proflex is also a good product. Just don't use silicone. It won't adhere.

    The only clear sealants I know of are silicone, and silicone is so NOT recommended for use on an RV.
