Roof inspection and maintenance on Citation

I have a Citation 24SR, Sprinter chassis. I know roof inspection and maintenance are important. Can anyone tell me whether the roof can be walked on and what kind of sealant is used on the components? Dicor? I can't find that info anywhere and am a little leery of walking up there anyway. Suggestions? Thanks!

We just took a tour on Thursday and we were told that all of the roofs are TPO and I specifically asked about walking on them and was told no problem unless you are very large.

Oh, they had many large boxes of Dicor Self-leveling sealant sitting there so that is what they use.

FWIW, I use a 4" roof seal tape on the front and rear caps to forever stop any potential leaks there. EternaBond or Quick Roof Ultra Bond works just fine. The latter being about half the price of the former.

Thanks for roof info

Wow, can't get better info than that from someone who was just at the manufacturer. Thanks so much to you both for the info and the suggestions. I've been in a couple of torrential rain storms and want to keep things water tight! I appreciate the help! I have a friend who is very handy, not afraid of heights, and weighs about 200. I'm hoping/assuming that is within the weight tolerance - it isn't excessive for a tall adult male. Would love for him to be able to help me out.
