I was in an RV parts and sales place in AZ and was told silicone is a bad choice because it reacts with the rubber roof. I disagree.
Henries roof coat and patch available at homedepot and other retailers was developed for mobile rubber and metal roofs. You don't have to take my word for this. Henries website explains. The catalyst used is water so it will not react with the roofing material.
I use the patch (100 percent silicone) to patch. I impregnate fiberglass drywall seam tape with the silicone for holes I need to cover.
When dry I paint the entire roof with henery's 100 percent silicone roof paint(tropi-cool brand name) for UV protection from the sun. This stuff caries a life time warranty and was made for the job.
