Gap Noticed in outside corner!

Hey all, I'm looking for some direction here. It appears some sealant/caulk came out out from the front corner where the side of the camper meets the front cap. Do I just re seal this section with anything special?

I attached a couple pics, hope it works.

Thank you

While you have a tube open check around all your marker, tail and license lights for potential leaks. Also, inspect your window and door edges for potential leaks or bad seals. Also around the hatch door frames and anywhere else. That stuff does not stay good in the tube for very long even if sealed up.

Thank you, I'll grab a tube of that and check the other things.

Do I need to pull out the old stuff or am I able to just pipe the new right over it?

I would use Quad: https://www.amazon.com/Window-Sealan...s%2C206&sr=8-1. I've used this in the exact application you are experiencing. It comes in different colors.

I have always used OSI Quad. Never used Pro Flex. OSI Qaud is extremely sticky stuff. To get nice clean lines, use some painters tape, to tape off where you do not want it. To smooth it out I use super soapy water solution, and my finger. I make sure my finger is always wet.
