Thanks for all the product suggestions and tips with eterna bond tape. If needed I will use it sparingly and test area first.

If you want to forget about resealing with Dicor and potential water intrusion, just put EternaBond over all Dicor overlapping the roof.

I would not worry about having to remove it. Yes… there is a rare chance you may have to replace a vent many years down the road but it still can be done.

The goal is to permanently prevent leaks by eliminating continuous Dicor inspection and resealing. I’ve dine two coaches this way and never had a leak and never had to reseal.

X a million with what Judge says. When we bought ours new it had a leak. Took forever to get it fixed but once we had all the Dicor replaced I EternaBond all seems everywhere. Haven’t had a problem since and it’s so nice just to get up there and clean it without having to inspect every piece of Dicor to make sure it’s not cracked.
