hey mate...great vid. i have a 39yr old hobby prestige with some more than dodgy seals. you made this look super easy. gonna give it a crack. cheers mate.
Learn something new every day my sealant is dirty on the roof ( more than likely green by now ) next week I find out 😀looks a great job you’ve done may even try myself ! After I get it to it’s new home Thanks Gavin
Thanks Gavin 😀 Ours (luckily enough) isnt too bad on the roof so we got off lightly with giving our little box a short back and sides. Let us know how you get on when its in its new home! Thanks for watching. Mart & Jo
I hadn't at first Rob but the more I looked at it, the excess was just that. Useless stuff that just attracted dirt! Thanks for the kind comments. Mart & Jo
Great little job Mart, sealant on my van is looking bit tired, I’m in process of removing locker door frames and applying new sealant. Battery box looks like a pain I’ll use this method on that . Thanks for sharing 👍
Nice one Col. Look forward to seeing what its like! It's amazing how much a little bead of new sealer tidies things up 😊 Thanks for watching. Mart & Jo
Great advice, I always check & reseal where needed every year (early spring). It ensures no leaks when away. I also take sealant & a sealant gun on holiday just in case. 😊😊
A bit of a spit, polish, bead of sealer, a bit of swearing here and there, and the old fella seems to scrub up well 👍 Thanks for watching, have a great weekend and thanks for the sub! Mart & Jo
My caravan is now 14 years and I would like to reseal my caravan, shouldn't you take the item off clean all old sealant off and reseal with new sealant. I know it's a big job but surely putting a thin bead of new sealant around old sealant which in my case is 14 years old is going to do a sound job. My first caravan and wonting to keep and look after it,so looking for advice. Thanks
In our case Peter, it was just to spruce up the old excessive showing sealer, basically, that was was expelled and visible. You're dead right in that if an item is leaking then take it off and seal underneath and effectively "re-do" the job. Luckily, ours wasn't leaking so if it isn't broke, don't fix it 🙂 and we just prettfied the part you can see. Our first caravan too, so spent a week or two during lockdown tidying it up. Thanks for watching and all the best for '21. Martin & Jo.
Totally agree with the spit but it was a needs must type of situation 😁 With silicone sealer, the bacteria in the spit makes the mould grow but luckily enough, with the Sikaflex, it doesn't happen. I hope! Thanks for watching. Mart & Jo
I'm a sod for cleaning the 'van and when I've got a day off work, love nothing better than disappearing off up to the storage site for a brew and tinker 😁
Hi Martin. A great job well done. Amazing what a little time and effort can do to tidy the appearance of the Caravan. Thanks Phil :)
Cheers Phil! Yep not much at all pal. Thanks for watching. Mart & Jo

Looks a neat finished job Mart. I never thought of trimming the excess sealant off. Great top tip video. Cheers Rob

I was just going to use unibond sealant, will this be OK. I think its bit of a gimmick to use the caravan one but what do you think
My caravan is now 14 years and I would like to reseal my caravan, shouldn't you take the item off clean all old sealant off and reseal with new sealant.

Hi Martin
Are you based in Liverpool
Nice one, liked the video, but not a great idea to use spit 👍
Totally agree with the spit but it was a needs must type of situation 😁 With silicone sealer, the bacteria in the spit makes the mould grow but luckily enough, with the Sikaflex, it doesn't happen. I hope! Thanks for watching. Mart & Jo
Amazing and wonderful friend new sub friend..
Thanks for watching!
Stop cleaning, you are making me look bad😂😂😂
I go through phases of being a clean and neat freak 😂
You'r previous video you polished and cut, this video you spit and silicone sealed 😁
I'm a sod for cleaning the 'van and when I've got a day off work, love nothing better than disappearing off up to the storage site for a brew and tinker 😁
