    I used to be an RV tech and would suggest looking into putty tape for under your sky light and Dicor lap sealant for over the edges and screw holes. That stuff is self leveling and is amazing. Food for thought will last a lot longer then silicone. We always went by the rule that anything on the roof gets Dicor and anything on the sides gets silicone.

  • @justinlyons
    @justinlyons Před 3 lety +2

    In the future, look into using butyl tape instead of silicone. It's much better than silicone and is used on boats. You can find it at your big box hardware store

  • @finscreenname
    @finscreenname Před 3 lety +1

    While you all are up there, I would put a coat of RV roof paint on ....the roof. The stuff is like a rubber membrane and will seal up all the new screws and such.

    A little surprised not to see any sealant around the window on the outside. Hope it seals well without. Great job you are doing on that trailer. It's going to be really super.

    • @borgonianevolution
      @borgonianevolution Před 3 lety +2

      I would fathom a guess and say no sealer because they probably have to come out to do the wrap when its ready.

    • @coostv
      @coostv Před 3 lety +2

      Butyl tape was not used anywhere! Should have been used for the skylights as well and dicor self leveling lap sealant on top.

    • @mcgizzle7835
      @mcgizzle7835 Před 3 lety +1

      Also note the windows open the wrong direction so whether drive down the road in the rain they will leak

    For the insulation if you taped up construction paper you could have used chalk or pencil to press up against the metal frame to imprint the dimensions. Did for thought for next time. Love y'alls videos.

    Getting the windows in is always an exciting accomplishment, yet stressful. Dicor/butyl tape is your friend for sealing the windows and skylights. Thru-the-roof is great for sealing any holes thru the exterior also... Lookin' great!

    I’m afraid you guys should have put down the subfloor before you installed the stick on floors. Just my opinion. Without the subflooring they may pop lose in a little time.
    My favorite CZcams couple that works great together on most anything! You guys are absolutely fantastic! I love y’all!
    I seriously doubt that there’s not much of anything left that you two cannot accomplish together!

Those big windows were a great find, almost perfect for the opening. Y'all are so blessed. Cheers from Jacksonville Florida 🌞

    • @howardmccarthy5811
      @howardmccarthy5811 Před 3 lety +1

      Was wondering the same thing. Would have thought treated marine plywood would be a better choice to handle moisture intrusion long term.

    @MeAlone44 Před 3 lety

    May not be a four car hauler some other CZcamsr bought a few weeks back, but I like the shape yours is taking. Cant wait to see it when you finish it up.
    Don't forget to think about AV equipment/Lighting inside and out. Indoor/outdoor speakers, LED lighting inside and out, maybe ground effect lighting :D Maybe an awning that can be retracted to serve as extra space in the pits. Thanks for sharing the project!

    @ronbuckner8179 Před 3 lety

    Rec-pro makes a good window. You might have been better off with Torque style windows (If they had them to sell). They work better in driving rain and typically offer more airflow. But at $299.00 I don't think you hurt yourselves. Make sure you install them with the Picture side forward and the Slider slide to the rear! Driving in the rain will make the window a RAM AIR for water-entry. (I've worked in RV's for 40 years)

    Emily and Aaron, if you're cutting sheets of ply, it is easier to use a track (usually a flat of aluminium) to make sure it's straight. I had a couple of Festo saws for this a few years ago for trimming.
