forever rv roof coating

Over Labor Day weekend I rolled a new roof on my rv. This forever RV coat is from The RV Man out in Sacramento, California. I received my 5 gallon bucket. I watched his video's online and asked him questions threw Facebook messenger. This stuff is awesome, I followed his directions and it is a 2 day process if you have no soft spots to fix. All I did was power wash roof with just water and left it dry, I then taped off the rain gutters and other things I didn't want messy and started to roll this on like I was painting. But here are some pics of before and after,

Cheaper than some other products, especially if it truly does last forever - the life of the rest of the camper that is.

Hopefully the product is better than his spelling/grammar.

At least it bead the price on "Armor Roof"

The only thing when facts are true is over 20 years of use.

As for me, nobody is perfect and I'm a perfect example of that.

I agree with nobody is perfect. But if I am advertising my product I am going to make sure to use spell & grammar check to make sure my web page looks like I know what I am talking about. When I see errors like that it makes me question the person's ability to create a product that I can trust.

I hope the product is as good as they say. The original poster's roof looks great and if it lasts 10+ years then it was money well spent. And I hope it does!

I ordered the 5 gallon pail and the cost was $515 shipped to my door in Pa. I bought 2 rollers and 2 brushes. I also bought some blue painters tape. I can see the roof out my bedroom window and it is amazing to watch the water roll off it instead of laying there. We slept in the camper when it was raining and what a difference in how the rain sounds on the roof. Camper seems to be cooler when I go to look around on a sunny day. Ron answered all my questions within an hour of sending him a message threw Facebook. I spent less then $600 and a weekend and all I need now to wash it is water.
I will keep you all posted on how it does I have a trip planned in 2 weeks so hopefully I won't look in my mirror and see it flapping and waving in the wind.

Ziptie, what kind of prep work do you do before applying? My TT is 24/7 in the weather. Looks like you did it right.

Does it roll on "thick"? Thick enough to cover minor imperfections? It looks great!

Roof coating

I bought the same rubber roof coating from home depot at around 250 dollars. I was a little Leary about using a power washer on the roof, but once I got started it was no big deal. It did a beautiful job and so far after 3 years it still looks like new. I bought 5 gallon not knowing how much I would need. Ended up using about 3 on my 32 foot 5th wheel. Had plenty left over to do my enclosed trailer.
