HOW TO Replace a RV Skylight

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

All the steps, tips, and lessons learned while replacing a rv Skylight. Water was leaking into the rv and first new self leveling lap sealant was added but it didn’t stop the leak. Troubleshooting continued and it was discovered that the skylight had a crack!

    You should have sealed the outer perimeter with Eterna-Bond tape. It is neater and guaranteed not to leak.

    Dave agreed, but he’s hesitant to use eternabond in case the skylight cracks again

    @@JBFriendsRVFiredUp Eterna-Bond can easily be removed from the roof by doing the following: Park in direct sunlight on a hot day, pull up on white or black outer covering (it will easily separate from the base), use a small paint scraper to easily remove the base with slow and steady pressure. It will clump up quite easily. This technique works well on a fiberglass roof, a rubber could be a problem. Personally, I would not have a rubber roof.

    ElfNet Designs that’s horrible, I wonder if you can spray with a sun screen solution ? Just a thought there must be something out there.

    Drommerist I told him he is lacking on the roof maintenance. Stalker said it needs to be pressure washed paying close attention around lap sealant and openings.
