Hello board. We own a 2017 Winnebago Aspect 30J.
She is a real particle board and cheap plastics beauty for sure.
Looking to purchase some caulking material.
Looking at the roof around drain pipe and skylights I guess it is the self leveling Dicor material still looks good "doughy" & pliable.
The question is not so much about that doughy Dicor material,
but the Slide Seams where the box joins and is screwed together at the seams where it was caulked or glued at the factory and the seams of the port hole hinge doors on the basement low riding doors.
What would be the best re-application (Caulk Material) be?
Just something house related Home Depot?
I am looking at this as more a a pre-emptive strike and Preventative Maintenance.
Luckily it only sat under the direct sun for one summer down here in Texas back in 2019, but the sealers at the seams are getting a little "Crackly" / "Crow Footed".
I think I want to carefully razor out and lay a fresh bead of ________ , RV specialty caulking material if there was such a thing only in certain areas? Nothing is leaking or so I think anyway.
Fill in the blank name, of CAULKING Product X " _________" the ones that RVrs trust and use to do joints on slides and maybe around basement door where they installed the port hole hinge doors?
Not taking about disassembly and gouging out all the material. Just more of a tape up, carefully touch up and reseal as required.
Select resealing on some of those basement doors that get the road juice slung on them because they are low riding, the ones that take the rain off the tires.
Is there a RVrs rugged choice of sealant type caulk product not dicor self leveling but a thinner sealing product?
