Eeeks.. Sure is a lot of non-cooperation and not-my-fault there. Like JRTJH, I'm up on the roof every 3-4 months. At least once a year, I'm checking the old dicor, pulling anything suspect off, and resealing.

Regardless, I can't come up with a valid reason why a factory seal job shouldn't last 1 year.

And I didn't know that Dicor can't be used on these roofs, so thanks for that bit of information.

The major fear is that roof coming loose in front, causing a balloon, and having it traverse the roof. I've seen that on a few RVs and it's got necessitate an expensive repair.

I've thought about using eternabond tape and the front of the cap, over the Dicor (Alpha) - anyone tried that?
