Polyeurothane sealant questions

(1/3) > >>

EL TATE:
I'm selling my trailer and a prospective buyer came by to look at it Saturday and asked about the tacky drips running from the windows, essentially on all of them. I had no answer for him if it was normal/abnormal, but it's always been like that for the last 5 years I've owned it with no leaks. Can any of you provide any insight as to why it's like that, and should I do something about it?

thanks

EL TATE:
My theory is butyl tape?

Bob Smith:

If you think it is butyl tape then use a razor knife to cut along the edge of windows and peel the excess off. Try it in a small spot first to see if it comes off with out making a big mess.


I have seen lots of RV's from the hotter places like Calif. and Arizona start oozing the sealer out from around the windows, doors, vents, or any place else it is used.

EL TATE:
I've had several 100+ days in Leavenworth, a week at a time during camping trips and it never seemed to be getting any worse. I appreciate the insight, i'll give it a shot tonight.

Nate:
pics?
