We had a small area (approx. 15 x 8) in the bedroom with water intrusion during a horizontal rain storm that got past the slide seal. I carefully cut the vinyl flooring off the perimeter of the soft area and removed all the loose chip board and foam insulation down to the sheet metal subfloor. I filled the cavity with two-part fiberglass resin in several curing passes over multiple camping trips, being sure the rig was perfectly level each pass. This was very useful since part of the damaged cavity ran under the extended slide and the resin would penetrate the surrounding chip board as well. The traditional repair would require slide removal. I haven't yet done the finishing part of gluing back the vinyl I removed. This is the ultimate waterproof repair IMHO.
