The roof covering rolls over the sidewall covering. The drip channel or some type of molding goes over that. A butyl tape is used under the channel/molding to make a water tight seal. Its the 1st line of defense against water intrusion.
Then a product like Dicor or many other self leveling sealants may be added as a 2nd line of defense.
Excellent and 100% correct description of the two types and lines of protection against water intrusion. MY COMPLIMENTS
What ever type of product you use up there especially on a roof that is still under warranty, be sure and not use a product that may void that warranty.
While that should certainly be a consideration, IMO doing something like a quality install of something like ETERNABOND IMO is still even more of a consideration. IMO if you have a leak, it probably won't show up before the warranty is over and ensuring you won't have a leak trumphs any warranty concerns which probably for leaks would not be covered and blamed on lack of routine maintenance.
