I used eternabond on the seams of an old trailer and it never leaked again. I'm thinking of heading off trouble with the new TT by using eternabond wherever I can. I would be interested in what others think of that.

Eternabond is great for the roof seams, and on the windows I would use Dicor caulk.

This is what I use.

I've used it for years. Just ordered more the other day. Like all caulk, you have to dig out the old stuff and clean up around the area with rubbing alcohol before applying the new caulk.

Does it last for ever---no
Does it crack---yes

Does the stuff they put on the trailer at the factory last for ever---no
Does it crack---yes


On the roof I use Dicor lap sealant.
