I recently had some PMs about caulking and resealing a trailer roof. Inadvertently, the messages were deleted before I could reply. The questions asked, were what type of Sikaflex should be used as a roofing sealant.

Sikaflex 291 is a very good product and it can be purchased at some big box stores or marine suppliers:

3M 5200 is also an excellent product, not only being a good sealant, but a structural adhesive as well. The Sikaflex 295UV is also a sealant / adhesive, but is used primarily as an adhesive for bonding. It has a higher UV protection than some sealants.

Sorry I didn't reply personally to the PMs. I'll try to be more careful with my house keeping computer duties in the future.

Gard - Thanks - Someday I would like to meet you in person -   There are very few men I know that admit they have made a mistake --- let alone post it on a forum !!    I have to agree with crowleysridgegirl  - You be the man!

More questions:

I had a chance to look on line for that product   (BTW -  Jamestown distrbuting has free shipping today / tomorrow so good time to buy  :)

Should I be buying white, or is black a better choice?  

How many tubes should be used?  

Any tips for how thick to apply?  I was looking on youtube for a video to show me how.. but couldn't find one.

Another question -  It appears there is leakage around the window by our kitchen table, as the covering on the wall board around it is starting to wrinkle.   I am assuming that means I need to caulk around the window as well... right?    Would sikaflex 291 be the right product for that as well?

FYI  Jamestown distrbuting has free shipping on orders over $50 today / tomorrow so good time to buy  :)
