Another video!! This is a great day my friends

[@MobileDwellings]

Woohooo!! Comments!!!

Some of the comments on here clearly just didn't watch the video. Anyway that looks great I'm curious if you have any concerns about the solar racking not being level because of the curve of the roof. I've seen other people use l brackets that are not quite 90. But if you find that the solar mounts just fine the way you put those rails on that would be awesome!

[@MobileDwellings]

Nope it's not a problem at all but this bus has a roof that is less rounded than most school buses so you may have to level them for you bus. Chuck Cassidy has videos about how to do that with this rack system

[@buffalomitch7088]

What length bolts did you use? I would have added some blue Loctite to the threads of the bolts for added safety to ensure they don't work loose over time. Very informative video!

Tell us about your skylight

[@Iamandthatiam]

what's that car roof rack you used to bring the aluminum rails?

At 9:17, what is holding that joining peace in place?

[@MobileDwellings]

I must not have filmed it this time, but you can see in my last build here that it got 2 self tapping screws: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXPNaZ96mdysqZY

Did you caulk before and what caulking did you use ?

[@MobileDwellings]

I didn't put any sealant on the roof. These seams were watertight and clean so I saw no need.

[@sarahwolff-zerzan7841]

How many foot is the bus and how many 5Gallon buckets of roof "paint" did you end up using for 2 coats of said bus length?

[@MobileDwellings]

it's a 34 foot bus but you probably only need 2 gallons to get the job done.

[@trivera0583]

What racking system is it that you used?

[@MobileDwellings]

Iron ridge roof racks. Check the video description for links.

How is the white roof holding up?

[@MobileDwellings]

White roof is doing great. Go for it.
