CHAPTER 6
CARE OF BODY COMPONENTS
EXTERIOR
Aluminum
The aluminum on the outside of your Jayco can be cleaned and washed the same as an
automobile finish. It is suggested that a spray wax or wash and wax combination be used
for waxing due to the texture of the aluminum. The textured aluminum siding will reduce
excess scratching. The roof aluminum skin material should be washed and polished to
maintain its finish.
CAUTION: We recommend that you DO NOT take your recreation vehicle through
automatic car washes and extreme caution should be used if utilizing any type of
pressure sprayer around all attachments, doors, windows, appliance vents, etc. to
avoid forcing water inside the unit, possibly damaging components.
Roof
CAUTION: All roofs require maintenance. At least two times each year inspect for
cracks, voids, peeling or loose seal and reseal
as necessary
all seams including trims,
vents, doors and windows. (Fig. 6-1)
Weather elements, such as winter’s freezing and summer’s UV rays cause sealant to dry
out, shrink, and deteriorate. Contact your dealer for the appropriate sealant to use. Two
areas on your roof require maintenance to be performed to meet warranty coverage on the
folding camping trailer roof.
1. Any corner or center flat trim has putty sealer tape between the metal and the skin.
This sealant must be examined and maintained yearly to avoid dry out and cracking.
In addition, the roof center flat trim is cap sealed on each end at the front and back.
The cap seal should be inspected for cracks, voids, peeling or loose seal two times
each year and resealed as necessary.
To cap seal:
•
Purchase a sealant as recommended by your dealer.
•
Remove any excess, cracked, peeling or lifting sealant from around the trim.
•
Clean the surface before resealing.
•
Apply a bead of sealant along each side of the trim with a caulking gun.
•
Using a soapy solution on your index finger, smooth out the sealant along each
side of the trim.
2. The trim on the lower edge of the roof is sealed internally and also has an outer cap
seal. If the cap seal becomes loose, separates, or cracks, it must be resealed as
indicated in Step #2.
3. Do not add roof attachments (such as boat or bike racks, air conditioners, vents, etc.)
in areas not designed to support such accessories.
You must maintain the seal
around all after market installed accessories at the attachment points as well.
Check all fasteners and accessories on the unit periodically and tighten and seal as
needed. Only factory installed equipment is covered under the terms of the Jayco
Limited Warranty.
