Do you remember the name of what you used?

Could you post the name of the product you purchased at Home Depot? Also how many coats did you apply?

first coat you just roll on enough to hear the tackiness of it, second coat roll on thicker and yes it will hide slight imperfections.

Do you have a link to the sealer you bought at Home Depot? They sell a few different brands.

Thanks

This lists it is designed for Asphalt roofing...doesn't mention elasticmeric roofing material which most RV's have. Also I was told not to use Silicone anywhere....ummm

If you go into the details of the product it is recommended for epdm and pto roofing. It is the only product they sell approved by Henry for RV roofs.

Don't buy or use this product if it worries you. I called the company because I have a epdm rv roof. I would use this product again in a minute. Good luck with your project.

Ziptie, I need to have a place repaired on my roof and the company uses Forever RV coat. How is your roof holding up? Would you use a different product if you had another roof to coat?
