This question is directed to D1trout and 69cayo but is open to anyone . Both of you have had the interior completely striped of insulation . Did you find any evidence of leaks at any of the panel seams ? This subject has come up several times about seams leaking . When I did my front end repair I found no signs of leaks at any of the panel seams , only at the penetrations , windows ,vents etc.. The panels had some kind of double sided foam tape as the seal . I used Tempro ( vulcum )caulk for the repair , which was used for Airstreams for 50 years . In the process of replacing the window plastic panes on the drivers side I used Tempro for the install . This seemed to fix a chronic leak that the original owner had complained about from paper work that I still have . When I removed the windows I did not lke the caulking job that saw . So my conclusion is that the panel joints are usually not the problem , the penetrations are where the leaks stem from . What say you ?
