Metal Roof Sealant Recommendations

Ask an RV Expert

Question


My rig has a tin/metal roof and I’m seeing some water deposits inside. I’m noticing some small holes in the tin – what should I seal it with?

Answer


I would recommend the metal roof coating from Dicor. It applies easy, will seal the holes and actually insulate the inside better as well. Check out their Elastomeric Metal RV Roof Coating and give it a try. I hope this helps!

Dicor additionally makes sealants for all roof types, not just metal or tin. They have products to help clean, replace, protect, and repair your RV Roof.

    I need help! I have a 1983 Fleetwood Pace Arrow with a 6.2l diesel. I need help figuring out where the fuel vapor return line (?) coming out of my fuel tank is supposed to be connected to. It's 31" long and has a hose clamp at the end of it. I've included a pic. Thanks in advance for any help! Hello Aaron, Great question!

    Our shop has been using rv roof magic for years now. Many reason but the main one is that we never had a customer call us about product issues. For us it is the best rv roof sealant out there and it never needs a primer one coat also. Their site is https://www.rvroofmagic.com/

    I hit a column and messed up the back corner and have new corner pieces but what is the best way to get the old caulking off? It seams more like a sealant versus caulking.

    Where do I start. My rv is making a loud "like" power steering noise. I know it's not the power steering because because of the fact when I turn steering wheel the noise does not intesify. To note when I break the noise seems to intesify..also if I put it in parl
