My 2006 toy hauler roof needs some maintenance. Here is a DIY project everyone needs to do after 10 years of sun deterioration. I bought the stuff at Camping World, but there are other places online.

how did you approach the existing gobs of sealer around the vents, seems etc. Did you scrape them off and redo. Seems to me it would be a hassle taking off the existing sealer / gobs of self leveling dicor that is already there.

I looked up this product and found that the price varies from around $30 to $100 depending on the seller. Can you provide any information as to where you purchased the product and is the first coat you applied different from the second cost? The reason I'm asking is because the label says it's part 2 of the system, is the cleaner/activator part 1? Thanks for any clarity you can provide.

I just did the same to my 26' toy hauler. My roof was almost all black because I was on the last layer apparently. RV places wanted anywhere from $3K-5K to replace my roof. I used the same product you used and I'm actually very impressed. I used a paint tray but it really doesn't matter. I will probably be doing one layer every year from here on out.

This application not only prolongs the life of the rubber roof, but makes it easier to clean and inspect. Another bonus is that it will increase the reflectivity, and thereby keep your trailer roof cooler, which adds more life, as well as the interior cooler, saving AC use.

Recommend spray down a 50/50 solution of Simple Green & Bleach wait a few minutes and then pressure wash off using a 40° fan spray at least 8-10" (depending upon PSI) away from the EPDM roof then let dry 24 hours. The next day, reseal top edges of all the edge trim pieces with non-leveling DICOR sealant, reseal all cracks with DICOR Self-Leveling lap sealant and/or use eternabond (only where it's really needed) then coat the entire roof with HENRY's Tropicoll 100% Silicone roof coating. It's really that simple!

If it were mine, I would inspect closely any existing caulk, mark it, clean and recondition as necessary, let cure. Then tape if you want that level of protection, clean and seal the entire roof as I did in this video. Replacing skylights and other penetrations are simply remove and install, with a final seal on anything broken in the process. Thank you for watching.

Black spots.... mildew stains.... yuck. Fyi. Try a product called miracle mist. Idk where u are but a stare called menards Carrie's it. Also my local walmart here in ND Carrie's it in the RV and marine section. . This stuff is amazing.. removes the stains like a hot knife thru butter. Very minimal scrubbing.

Why did you cover the rig with plastic?
@redroofretriever
@redroofretriever 4 жыл бұрын
The cleaner will leave residue and streaks on the sides, as I rinse. I didn't want to rist permanant streaks, and I didn't want to cause more work, so the plastic protected the sides.

What is the length of your RV question
@redroofretriever
@redroofretriever 4 жыл бұрын
This was considered 25ft, but the roof itself was 20ft in length, the fold out bunk was the additional 5 ft I guess. Thanks for watching.

RedRoofRetriever thank you for taking the time to make the vid. Ha id be too stressed to set up a camera. I have a 27ft with one slide out. Im thinking 3 gallons of paint and 2 (qt?) of the cleaner/deactivator should be enough then based on what you did.
