I applied right over the top of the existing Dicor. Lots of people will use a plastic putty knife and remove as much of the old Dicor as possible. I do not care if it looks a little wrinkly, only I and the one above ever sees it.
I use 6" wide Eternabond tape, bit shy of a 50 foot roll. Only because the Dicor along the front cap was really wide in some places, and I would have had to be extra careful applying the 4" to get full coverage.
It took me two evenings to apply it. Evening 1, I washed the roof really well. Evening 2 with a dry roof, I applied the Eternabond to all the joints, vent openings. I applied full 6" wide tape, in most places. I did cut it down for the backside of my frig roof vent, and made a few cuts, and small wedge shapes to fully seal around the waste tank vents and radio antenna. Only thing I did not seal, was the caulking at the TV antenna, as I ran out of time.
If you want to remove the old Dicor, you will need to plan to add a few evenings.
Eternabond is super sticky stuff, so once it touches it is stuck. Do NOT stretch Eternabond, or it will release, within a few days.
