RV Roof Sealants

Sealants are used to create an airtight and watertight seal between the surfaces. When choosing a sealant for your boat or RV, think of the surface you will apply it on. Some sealants will not bond to plastic, while others are not designed for extreme temperatures or exposure to chemicals. To figure out what's right for you job, you also have to consider whether you need a permanent or a temporary bond, whether the seal will be above or below the waterline, whether you need it to be strong or flexible, and how long you can leave it before it cures. With a wrong sealant, you won't be able to do the job right the first time.

There is a variety of sealing compounds available on the market. Silicone and polysulfides are among the most versatile and widespread. Polyurethane is used when a permanent bond is needed as it features high adhesive strength. Polyether compounds are exposure resistant and flexible. You also need to choose the right color that will match the color of the surface you are planning to use it on. The most popular colors are black, white, and gray, however if you are not sure what color of sealant to choose for your particular application, there is always an option of going with a transparent sealant.

Before using any kind of sealant, clean the surfaces properly to make sure that there is no grease or dust, which will ensure excellent adhesion of the patch or substance that you are going to apply. Don't forget to add a cleaning liquid, which will ensure that the sealing or emergency patch that you apply will last long.
