Spent the day removing the caulk and putting on tape. Did the front, bath skylight and the black tank vent. Dodged a big bullet there. I started to remove the caulk on the vent when a hidden bubble popped and a quarter size piece of wood roof was exposed. There was literally a thin skin over a void that could have opened at any time. Also found two places on the skylight that were mostly just laying of the roof, came up with no effort. On the front found caulk over a cut in the skin and rusty staple in the aluminum front. Now all that is safely under tape. Tomorrow, the TV antenna and the radio antenna. I may put off the vents as they are under vent covers and the caulk looks like new.

I used eternabond all the way around our metal roof, did around the roof vents and anything else that passed through the metal also. So far no leaks, been 3-4 years.

Have any of you purchased and used the Eternabond EternaPrime Surface Conditioner & Adhesive Enhancer? It's supposed to aid in the adhesion of the Eternabond tape. I was considering getting a can but thought I would check with the experts first. Thanks!

When I ordered ny last batch of Eternabond , I ordered 2 spray cans of surface cleaner. I still have a part of one can and I was happy with the job it did. I used it sparingly and often sprayed on a cloth that was used to wipe the surface after removing the high spots of the old caulk.

There are two different Eternabond products. One is the Surface Cleaner and the other is the Conditioner and Adhesive Enhancer. I have the Surface Cleaner but not the Conditioner and Adhesive Enhancer. I've never heard anyone on the Forum mention about the Adhesive Enhancer so I was wondering if it was necessary and useful. Thanks!

I have never heard of it but also never needed anything to enhance it!
