26' Layton roof repair

Hey everyone got a question for you all. I have a 26' Layton bumper pull and it is going to be my deer lease camper and I'm wanting to seal up the roof due to it being left outside year around. What is a good sealer I can coat the entire roof to help with it being out in the elements year around? I had a plan and it didn't work out to well. I bought a really nice 20x30 canopy for it with a heavy duty tarp and installed it on Monday only to have a big storm roll through last night and demolish the entire thing! I'm really really unhappy right now. So, instead of putting together another make shift roof structure, I'm pondering the idea of just resealing the whole roof even if I have to do this every year. Again, this camper is going to be left outside all year. I ran across some stuff online that is like a paint/roll on liquid roof made by EPDM coatings. It looks good but I'm not sure about it. Anyone have any experience with this stuff? Is it worth the money? Are there any other cheaper alternatives out there since I may need to do this every year? Thanks for any help yall.

You're probably better off by getting up there and using either Eternabond tapes or Dicor sealant on any through holes and seams, then putting on a cheap roof paint. The EPDM coatings may not seal totally and one leak may mean lots of repair.

What kind of roof is on it now? Rubber or aluminum? My 89 has aluminum and it's great
