    Caulking can make it look nice, but if you have leaks suggest pulling the window and resealing it with butyl tape.

    Another quality caulk would be Dicor. But be careful that you buy no sag caulk. Almost every listing on Amazon is for self leveling which would run down and drip off the window frame.

    They don't sell white in California just clear

    Do you know anyone that lives outside of CA? Have them order it and then ship it to you in CA.

    Colored Geocel can't be sold in CA. From what I've read the colored versions violate California Air resources board (CARB) rules , I'm guessing that it has a volatile petroleum component that off gasses. Clear Version has a CARB exemption.

    Last time I did my camper, I used OSI Quad-Max for everything except the roof (it is not self leveling.)
