If you have a RV, you have a roof. Unfortunately, then you have to take care of that roof.
You have 2 options: 1. Take it to a Dealer to maintain or 2. Maintain it yourself.
If you go to a dealer, be prepared that costs can go as high as $8000 for a full roof restoration. If you maintain it yourself, you can restore your roof for about $500 in a weekend.
If you're a person that likes to know your roof is sealed up properly, won't leak and ruin your next trip, then Liquid Rubber RV Roof Coating is for you.
STPES:
1. PREPARE YOUR SPACE AND GATHER YOUR MATERIALS:
Make sure your RV roof is completely dry and thoroughly clean, with any damages repaired. Use RV Smart Cleaner to clean the surface. TPO, fiberglass and aluminum should be scuffed to remove all shine. (TPO needs to be aggressively scuffed).
2. DETAIL WORK:
Detail areas may include vents, skylights, etc. Precut Seam Tape to desired length and fit. Remove plastic backing before applying (be careful not to stretch the seam tape when removing the backing). Apply Seam Tape to all seams at perimeter and protrusions (vents, skylights, etc. Use pressure to activate adhesive leaving no wrinkles or fish-mouths. Overlap separate pieces of Seam Tape by at least 1 inch. Prime detail roof areas (not the Seam Tape) with the EPDM primer. When dry (tacky when cured), apply a heavy detail coat of RV Roof Coating over the Seam Tape to encapsulate (at least 1 inch beyond the edges of the Seam Tape). Allow to dry.
3. TIP FROM THE PROS:
FOR BEST RESULTS REMOVE EXISTING PAINTS/COATINGS AND APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE SUBSTRATE.
4. MASKING:
Tape-off, block off or otherwise mask areas that are not to receive coating.
5. PRIME:
Use EPDM primer for EPDM and TPO (sand well before). Use Multi-Purpose Primer for fiberglass, metal, aluminum (sand well before).
(For EPDM, fiberglass and TPO, wipe the surface with a white rag that has been dampened with acetone right before priming. For aluminum, if rusted, remove rust from areas before priming with 1-2 coats of Multi-Purpose Primer or a Rust Primer to prevent bleed through.)
6. APPLY COATING:
Work in manageable sections. Apply the EPDM Primer to one side of the RV (leaving the other side uncoated so that you can walk and work on it ) Allow the EPDM Primer to dry for 1-2 hours (EPDM primer is very sticky, coat over as soon as possible to reduce debris sticking to it). Apply the RV Roof Coating using a brush, (3/8) 10mm roller or airless paint sprayer over the EPDM Primer, leaving 4-6 inches of the primer exposed. This will ensure you can overlap it when you begin the second side. Allow the RV Roof Coating to dry enough to walk on and repeat the process for the second side. Apply as many coats of RV Roof Coating until you use up required amount. Allow approximately 6-8 hours between coats or until dry to the touch with nothing wet underneath. Apply each new coat at a right angle to the previous coat to ensure even thickness.
7. INSPECT AND PROTECT:
Inspect for pinholes, blisters, voids, thin spots or other defects. Repair as necessary.
8. CLEAN UP:
Remove tape while coating is still wet and close container to secure leftover product. If spillage occurs, soak up as much material as possible with rags. Clean immediately with soap and water. If spill is dried, scrape off as much as possible with a razor or scraper. Use mineral spirits to weaken product and an appropriate tool such as a wire brush or grinder to mechanically remove. If splashed on the skin immediately wash thoroughly with fresh water. If the product has dried on the skin massage the area with medical grade mineral oil, baby oil or edible oil, then wash with soap and water. If irritation persists seek medical attention.
9. If your RV is still under warranty be sure to contact the manufacturer to ensure you do not void the warranty.
