Enjoy.

Thank you for posting. I have a travel trailer that is starting to leak in the inside cabnets/wall areas, only on the slide out sides. This gives me an approach on how to address in the spring when we dewinterize it...thank you for the ideas

[@thecreativewanderingduo]

Awesome. Glad to be able to help.

Thank you for sharing. My husband and I live year round in our rv and have started getting leaking through our slideout cupboard. Finding this video has given me a solution! ❤

You are welcome. Hopefully this solution will help you fix your slide.

Really good job I would do the bottom of the slide the same way so water doesn't wick into the slide out subfloor

[@thecreativewanderingduo]

Good ideas

[@mtavernari]

Great job; i coated the whole roof with silicon; very waterproof

[@thecreativewanderingduo]

Thanks, siliconing the entire slide would have been a lot of work.

[@Jchappy808]

What type of silicone?

[@raystanton238]

That's some good sealing tape! It will probably outlast the main roof membrane.

[@thecreativewanderingduo]

You are right, it probably will. 😉

Thanks for video

[@thecreativewanderingduo]

You are welcome

I was wondering if it’s a good idea, since the rubber seals go over top of tape

[@thecreativewanderingduo]

There has been no issues since installing it in over 3 years. It sticks super well.

Nice

[@thecreativewanderingduo]

Thank you.

I did the same thing with my but caulked all the seems underneath the tape first then taped it

[@thecreativewanderingduo]

That is a good thing to do, Cody. I didn’t do any caulking as the seams were good. Thank you for commenting. I appreciate it a lot.
