Inspecting Roof
I decided it was time to inspect my roof since we hadnt since we bought it. I found a great you tube video on touching up cracks in the dicor sealant. My roof is stainless sheet metal and looks pretty good (wavy but good). Didnt notice any cracks in any of the sealant around vents and such but did notice some slight separation on the sides so I ran to camperworld and got some dicor to put on next weekend.Here is that video:

I fought roof leaks for years IMO Dicor is a waste of money it drys cracks and leaks and needs to much maintenance. You better with Eternabond roof tape it won't crack, shrink, and lasts for years. The other is Liquid Rubber you mix with what come in box you roll it on or paint it turns to real rubber and lasts a long time. it will go on metal,fiberglass, you name it it really works.

Yes, they also have it 2,4,6,8 inches wide and it looks better the the gooey stuff. Like I said I think the Dicor stuff is a money maker for them as the state you should go inspect it 2 times a year and use more stuff because it cracked again.
