Re-Sealing Ouside Fiberglass Coach Panels

[JeffM]

Both of the front seams where the left and right sides of the coach bond the the front fiberglass section (over the cab/above each door) need to be resealed. They are some cracks developing along these seams. What is the best way now to reseal these seams, or any seams in the fiberglass panels on the Clipper coach? Thanks...

Your post about seam sealer got me thinking that I need to re-seal my coach when I paint it this winter, I hope
We always used 3M joint and seam sealer before on cars but I got wondering if there was a better choice for our application. I got a $10 coupon in the mail yesterday for Camping World so off I went. Camping World is not always the cheapest but as a rule they carry prime products. I found tubes of ProFlexRV flexible sealant in white clear and light tan for about $6 made by Geocel in Elkhart Indiana for the RV industry. It's toolable wet and paintable after it sets so I am going to give it a try. I took pics of the tube and my coach, cracks, bugs and all They also have a 800# for questions 1-800-348-7615. When I painted cars we would lick the old seam sealer with the torch to soften it and wire brush it away, but on a Clipper I might try to use a die grinder (big dremel) to remove the old stuff using a wire brush or a cutter bit after I scraped, dug and cut out the easy stuff. My Clipper spent the first 28 years setting outside in Pennsylvania so it needs some TLC as there is not much shine left on it.

Thanks Jerry for your research on this issue. I think it will benefit a number of other Clipper owners who need to seal coach body seams.
