I knew I was going to need to reseal around some of the vents and such. I have been told about a product called Flexpro not sure if this is the spelling but has anyone heard of this. Suppose to be able to brush on and dries to a water tight seal with a 10 year guarantee againts leaks.
CORRECTION the product is Flexpro.
 
Flexpro would probably work but it is not designed for use on EPDM rubber roofs. See their product literature at http://www.paintdocs.com/webmsds/webPDF.jsp?SITEID=CPC&prodno=05-417&doctype=PDS&lang=2

A product such as Dyco 20/20 that is designed for rubber roofs might be a better choice. See http://www.pplmotorhomes.com/parts/rv-roofs/381475.htm.
 
Thanks for the info link. I have a fiberglass roof and the rv shop recommended the Flexpro due to it being fiberglass. I do not see fiberglass listed at that link so maybe I need to rethink it. What wouid be a good fix for the fiberglass roofs? A good automotive sealer was what I was going with at first until the RV shop recommended the Flexpro stuff.
 
I saw a skylight that had been re caulked with self leveling caulk other than that recommended.  The skylight was crazed severely.  I was told by the owner that he was told it was caused by using the wrong caulk.  I sure wouldn't want that to happen on our coach.
 
I did have an inaccurate spelling, the product is ProFlex and seems to be a pretty standard application for fiberglass as well as rubber. It contains a fiber fill that acts something like a thin sheeting of fiberglass if I am reading correct. You can perform patch work with this compound the same as using the fiberglass patch. What I fof esd use a caulk tape to form a gasket under the roof top fan vent put new caulk around that and then after that cures coat the surface with the Proflex to form a barrier. I will be using this ( weather permitting ) over the Thanksgiving week-end. I have already replaced and recaulked one of the 4 plumbing vents as well as the main fan vent. Next 3 more plumbing vents, 1 bathroom vent fan, 3 antennas, 1 spot light, refrigerator exhaust vent, tv antenna and so on and so on, and a partridge in a pear tree. I will be a lot more happy with new caulk and a good seal. And what better time than nice warm fall week-ends.
