My RV Roof has a rubber membrane (EDPM???) top and there are NO WATER LEAKS OR TEARS WHATSOEVER butttttttttt due to age the glue has failed in one area and the membrane is not stuck down to the plywood under it i.e. in a wind the membrane lifts slightly. The RV Forums say its glue failure. There are alllllllll sorts of RV rubber roof coatings and repair kits and sealers and glue etc but one would have to slit the perfectly good membrane, get glue under it, then reseal the slit. Im tempted to get a tube of Dicor (they say use that NOT Silicone on rubber roofs) and in 6 inch grid squares dab a spot and run a good stainless steel pan head wood screw down, then coat the top with another thin coat of Dicor sealant. Yep I KNOW thats not the right way but am considering it as that should stop any elevation of the membrane when driving and the Dicor under n over the screws should seal the holes left by the new screws. Heck I could even re coat the enitre area (using proper rubber roof coat) once the screws are in place and sealed so the membrane no longer lifts in the wind. I have a fear it could get a small tear n the wind tear the whole rubber top off grrrrrrrrr
Sooooooo whatcha think, those of you with rubber RV roof experience?????????????
