Seems it offers the best of both worlds of sealing and adhesion. Wouldn't it be good for helping secure AND seal roof mounted solar panels. I'm using well nuts through the feet though.....can't roller that area. Will finger pressure around the well nuts be enough to activate whatever it is that needs activating?

NO! NO! NO! ... While Eternbond sticks like concrete, the microsealant is very elastic and softens with heat and will stretch making it a very poor adhesive for attaching anything. In fact if you stretch even the roof seal, over time you will see that areas along it's edges will release from whatever surface you have applied it to.

Hmmm, that's a vigorous "No!" The feet are held with a 3m adhesive in addition to the well nuts. Instead of Dicor over the feet I was thinking the Eternabond would offer some additional securing besides the necessary sealing around the well nuts.

Ran into a lot of branches this summer ...
But, nah, I've still got four bearings to repack, and luckily the branches didn't tear up the rubber roof.
These trailers are a lot of work!
I said the same thing but waited to long and the damage is now done. Wish I hadn't waited and done it sooner.
