Creases in roof?

While up on my roof today, I noticed that I have these creases...anyone else have this issue and if so, what did you do?

Very common on Thor roofs. As long as they are not torn or punctured, no action is needed.

One would think that this crease would start to crack as it's not down on the roof.

Cover them with Eternabond Tape and you won't have to worry.

While you're up there, clean the roof and check the Dicor.... then apply Eternabond over all of the Dicor and overlap the roof where there are seams, joints, mounts, etc. You won't have any roof maintenance other than cleaning once a year and you'll never have any roof leaks.

Keep a roll of Eternabond in the coach for emergency repairs...... cracked skylight, roof tear, etc.

Love the Eternabond, wish they had some for sealing the windows and trim on the walls.

They do make a grey putty / butyle tape. It might not be too pretty depending on where you need to apply it but it works well.
