I'm getting ready to do this to the sewer vent on my truck camper. Can you tell me how much clearance there is between the bottom of the rotating fin and the roof? If it's less than 4 inches my roof rack will prevent it from rotating.

Did you get up on your roof often much after it was done? I'm wondering if it would get damaged by boots etc...

I wouldn't wear boots, or any shoes, on top of the RV roof at all. There could be tiny stones stuck in your treads, and before you know it you'll have holes all over the place. I'm either in socks or bare feet to protect the membrane.

I used flex seal on my house flat roof It had an old hot rolled roof they wanted $14k to replace it. I rented a floor sander lifted it up on the roof using 2x4's and ropes sanded my roof get rid of all the old flaking roof paint not all the way through to the plywood. I bought 10 gallons of flex seal to cover 1200 sq feet of roof and rolled it on the roof with a roller 3 coats. I'm in the south west desert where we have 120F heat and very high UV. Still looks like new been 3 years in fact I even had a roofer redo part of my roof shingles he was really surprised how well it's held up to the UV. I figured the worst that could happen is I wasted $1400 and the roofer just tear it all out anyway.

Trailer life💚. Melanie, you’ve got great taste. Beautiful layout, storage can be tight, although camp life and its simplicity feels like freedom and less chaos. Grateful for being retired with my Beau and spending May-Oct in a trailer park in Ontario Canada. Lots of light, high ceiling helps a small space feel open and airy, and even though the majority of the time we’re outside in the great outdoors enjoying everything nature has to offer, the rainy days and under-the-weather days are super cozy and zen in a space that you love. Life is short. Life is a trip! I am now in the head space even more of ‘don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today’. It really is all the little things you enjoy that add up and fill your heart. Everyone’s ‘normal’ and ‘happy’ is unique. “Don’t worry, be happy” is a minute by minute journey and a healthy mindset; that’s a challenge when life hits hard, and the strength and resilience we gain staying positive around it is a gift. Love that you are such an inspiration to everyone that’s following, and first and foremost, yourself💚

@@LifesSweetJourney Melanie, that sounds like a sweet plan for your retirement. And living the best life doing trips with your hubby and baby girl as she grows up. I loved my summers as a kid-teen as my parents pulled a trailer around to different provinces here. So relaxing, and always plenty of other people enjoying the same gig, around to help, or just meet and laugh around a campfire with. We park at one place for the whole season now, less than two hours from home, and it gives us convenience and comfort knowing we can dash back for doctor appointments and other ‘more fun’ commitments, lol. Fishing for Bass out of my kayak is a wee addiction, hehe, and it’s because of the anticipation of the catch, the thrill of the action. My happy place. Best wishes tomorrow for a smooth surgery and recovery. I hope you’re feeling excited with anticipation about it as more progress is just around the corner. 💚XO

Now thats it has been awhile longer what has been your maintenance schedule on this? DO you tear the edges off what comes off then cover over it? How much does your RV cover rub off the edges when you remove it and can you use any flex seal products to seal over the flex seal liquid around say vents etc
@LifesSweetJourney
@LifesSweetJourney 4 ай бұрын
We haven't had to do any of that, it is still holding up really well and hasn't rubbed or peeled at the edges yet at all! We also no longer have a cover- it got ripped in a storm so it is just exposed to the sun. But yes if we needed to patch spots we would just paint over with more of the flex liquid.

I was considering using this stuff but there’s just too much risk to be worthwhile. Maybe if it was 1/2 the cost. I’m glad it’s worked for y’all tho! But for me at least, the amount of money and prep it takes I think I’ll go with something that’s less failure prone and actually meant for RV roofs 😮. Not to come off sounding like a elitist dink 😅, it’s just I’ve tried ‘alternatives’ and ended up doing it over, costing a lot more time and $¥€£ in the long run.

We did this several years back. we removed all the covers and washed the roof throughly with Dawn dish soap to remove and grease or oil or wax build up. Let it dry we did put ours on with a brush. It's held up very well, and the roof does not get hot like it used to, and the inside of the camper stays cooler in the summer heat. It does get dirtier quicker, but once you wash it. It looks brand new. And I would do it again also, no cracking or peeling.

@@gerrymatheson4020 It is flex seal and is still doing a good job now we put ours on with a brush and put it on a little thicker, but it is holding up very well. I will add in the summer the roof does not get hot like the rubber roof under it, my wife is the one who checks the seals around everything and with the flex seal the roof is much cooler. It doesn't absorb the heat like the rubber roof would.

People are so worried about being right, if it works for them who gives a shit. If anything, im certain it hasnt hurt what's underneath the flex seal. Flex seal is some amazing stuff im sure it woould work well. RV roofs are notoriously bad antways so what are they really huring.
