Section 13: Exterior
Sealants
Sealants perform a very important function and should be inspected closely and regularly
maintained. We incorporate many different types of sealants, including butyl/putty, black
butyl-encapsulated foam, silicone (clear and colored), roof sealant and foam. In general,
sealants do not have “set” lifetimes. Varying environmental factors affect the pliability and
adhesiveness of sealants.
You or your dealer must:
Inspect all sealants, a minimum of every six months. Make sure to check the roof and
all four sides of the recreation vehicle including al moldings, doors, vents and exterior
attachments. A quick walk around the recreation vehicle before leaving may help pre-
vent potential problems during trips and vacations.
Have the sealant replaced if you notice any cracks, peeling, voids, gaps, breaks, loose-
ness or any sign of physical deterioration. Reseal at least one time each year as pre-
ventative maintenance.
Always use the same type of sealant that was removed. Your dealer recreation vehicle
service or parts manager can help you obtain the correct sealant(s).
The sealants may become damaged due to road vibration, ultraviolet exposure, air pollution,
freezing temperatures and exposure to other elements. If deteriorated, repair immediately
Failure to properly maintain or reseal your recreation vehicle may result in
serious water damage to the roof and other parts of the recreation vehicle. This
damage is not covered by the Towable Limited Warranty.
