Sealing the caravan

[corrispunx]

Hi All,
We have a leaky seam and need to cure it. We've been looking at different sealant but are a none the wiser as there are a multitude out there.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

If it is a join with a capping, remove the screws, lift the capping and get rid of all the old sealant.

Then squeeze new sealant under the capping and replace the screws. Sealant should then be removed where it has come out from under the capping.

When I rebuilt mine, I went for IFA sealant rather than Sikaflex. Sikaflex is an adhesive that goes hard and is a b***** to remove later. IFA remains tacky and is messy to remove but will enable cappings to be removed every 2-3 years without damage.

Thanks for that. I shall explore more.
