I wanted to do some maintenance on the roof, but when I got up there I found that it was really sticky and gummy. The actual roof was sticking and coming off on my shoes and clothes. This can't be normal. Has anyone else had this problem. I know the Texas heat can be brutal, but melt the roof??
I don't know what you have for a trailer, or how old it is. Could it just be the chalking ?
Which is normal, but I've never seen as extreme as you say.
Sorry that I haven't responded, It's been crazy here lately. I have a 2015 Crossroads Elevation that I love and has been a great trailer.
When I get on the roof. It's like the top layer of the roof is mushy and moves when your on it. It will stick to your clothes and come off on your clothes. I had to use lighter fluid to remove it from my clothes and just threw the shoes away. I had a RV repair guy out to work on the A/C and he said he thought it was normal and had seen it happen to other roofs. It does not leak, but does concern me.
Has someone treated that roof with something thinking it'll be good for it and extend the life of the roof. I'd be afraid of leaving anything on those rubber roofs. I'd say if your washing it, and even using a tiny amount of dawn dish detergent to clean your roof make extra sure you wash and rinse enough to remove all residue. personally I just use the pressure washer and only water, no detergent. Had Aphid Honeydue after the seasonal and that was the only thing that would remove that black sh*t, but was informed by a buddy by a few tips and wash the side as you go along cause those white waterstreaks also become a bear to remove. .
My 2015 Cruiser 322RL roof has done the same. I called Dicor and they sent me the roofing material and installation kit which consisted of adhesive, caulking, and butyl tape. Because it is 6 years old, they will not cover labor. Mine is in the shop now getting a new roof put on. I have kept ine under a carport cover since I bought it new.

Here's a thread from earlier this year, talking about the same problem.
Best of Luck with your roof.
