What caulk to use.

I am going to replace my gutter spouts. Got two that will be replaced but not sure which caulk to use or what they had there originally.

Thanks
  • Thanks. I knew the self leveling was not the answer for the spouts but Dicor lap sealant is what I was looking for Did not know they made this.

    Thanks!!

  • Lap Seal, NOT SELF LEVELING. It will run all over the side of your RV. It will increase your vocabulary trying to get it off.
  • If you are replacing gutter spouts or extensions, you will want to use Dicor or Proflex lap sealant behind, around the new gutter parts and a dab in the holes for the mounting screws. Self leveling should only be used on the flat horizontal surfaces of the roof.
