RV roof is exposed to many environmental factors; because of this RV roofs will face wear and tear with the passage of time. Due to extreme weather conditions RV roof will contract or expand causing structural weakness. Low spots will develop leading to unwanted pooling of water on the roof surface. Therefore RV roofs require proper care and maintenance so that they can last longer.When it comes to RV maintenance, the major line of defense is a high quality roof sealant e.g. RV Liquid Roof.


Pre-Application: Before applying RV Liquid Roof do a thorough inspection of the roof. Clean the roof from dirt, debris and any loose material. Wash the entire roof surface using brush and mild detergents. Avoid using harsh chemical products which can cause damage to the roof surface.

As in liquid form it’s just a fine combination to fill up the seams and attachments on RV’s flat roof surface. Just pour the liquid material over the roof surface, apply it with the help of roller or squeegee and let it dry for 24-hours.

High in quality but low in cost: RV Liquid Roof is DIY material with one-coat application and no primer needed it saves both product and labor costs. When applied properly it restores the old roof at a fraction of cost of new roof providing protection form extreme weather conditions, water ponding and leakages.

Durability: RV Liquid Roof is a liquefied version of a synthetic rubber typically referred to as EPDM. Unlike rubber sheeting, liquid roof can go where the sheet version could never effectively coat. Even in extreme weather conditions the coating holds strong and provide protection against UV-rays, ozone and all kind of other elements. RV Liquid Roof is the only industry product with one-coat application and 10-years of guaranteed coat life.
