It is getting cold and I am making fast repairs before winter.

Eternabod tape. Put it over the seam.

Thanks for the reply I have put 3 inch eternabond bond tape all along the seam along with dicor self leveling caulk but I also wanted to put a large coating over it all

I used Eternabond to seal my roof seams. It has not leaked for years. I expect the trailer to disintegrate before the Eternabond.

I would leave it just the way you have it now. You should be fine.

Sealant is like knots. More is not better... Use the right knot and the load stays secure.

Use the right sealing and the water stays out. I think (like the others) you will be fine over the winter with what you have done.

It’s funny now that you mentioned knots, I worked at a naval shipyard on submarines and I had an old rigger one time tell me that if I didn’t know how to tie a knot, tie a lot of them. ️

He wasn't doing you any favors -

It's like my first A&P job at the local airport. The old dudes sent me into town to buy some Flight Line. I took off in the company truck and went to a movie. At the end of the day I came back and said, "I went to three different towns and no one had any flight line. If you want I will go out tomorrow and look some more. I can even pick up some prop wash if we're running low."
