While at Quartzsite, I was told by the techs that I needed to fill in the sealant between the roof and the cap. Unfortunately, I didn't write down what it was that I was supposed to use. I assume it's some sort of caulk. Anyone know?

I will say that most roofs that GDRV has used in the last few years are TPO roofs from Alpha Systems. If you have a 2014/2015 model or a Transcend, then a different material will be needed. if you have the Alpha Systems roof, the correct product is Super Flex self leveling sealant. It can be purchased through Camping World. There are a variety of colors, so make sure you get the correct one.

I have been using a Dicor recommended by the dealer. It looks like the original sealant. Some of the sealant looks a little ragged. Should I continue to use Dicor, or can I mix and use superflex now?
thanks,

From the Alpha Systems maintenance sheet - "If additional sealant is needed, you can purchase Super Flex sealant at www.campingworld.com. Please note ONLY SUPER FLEX BRAND SEALANTS CAN COME IN CONTACT WITH THE SUPERFLEX ROOF MEMBRANE."

I won't risk voiding my warranty by using a product that is not recommended by the manufacturer.
