I’m replacing a side board and found rot on 2x2 lateral roof support on my rockwood pop up. After watching this I have plan to cut roof about 12 inches from side and replace rotted section; then patch with bondo to create seal then use roof sealant. The roof material is seen on bathroom walls in commercial settings a little rough non smooth surface Fiberglas type. Good reference thanks
You did a real nice job repairing/replacing this roof. I have the same Palomino popup with the same roof issues. I was wondering if a coating specific for fiberglass (like Dicor fiberglass RV roof coating) might be a better choice than the Heng's rubberized coating. What do you think? Does the rubberized roof coating stick real well or does it tend to peel off?
I am not familiar with the Dicor Fiberglass RV roof coating, so I can not say one way or the other if it would be a better choice. What I can say is that it has been a year and the Heng's is holding up good on this roof. It has not peeled, cracked or leaked so far. It is stored outside as well, not under any cover. The can does say it can be used on rubber, metal, wood, concrete or wherever a durable flexible coating is needed. Hope that helps.
Hola muy buen video estoy con un problema también en el techo interior pero por agua no sé si es por el aire y este tapado el despicher pero tengo que cambiarlo y el techo de tu camper es muy similar al mío así que muchas gracias por compartir saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱
Great job! I'm getting ready to tackle the same job on almost the same camper. Did you paint the rubber roof material right over the caulking on those metal rails that run the length of the roof on the two sides?
I did paint right over the caulking on the rails. After the fact I wish I had taken the rails off and put new butyl tape under it. I also wish I had tried harder to peel the palomino sticker off the back as you can see it through the rubber roofing. It still works the way I did it fine and has had no leaks since.
No worries, the entire roof took about four days, start to finish, and about $650 in materials. More time was spent on the interior side (2 full days). The exterior side took two days; however, part of that was the waiting time to let the first coat of paint dry.
I didn't pressure wash this one because it had a lot of holes in it, so I just hand washed it. If it didn't have all the holes I would have pressure washed it.
@@parkedredesign I thought the same thing but you know what, that is a hell of a lot of work you did on this and if that is the only issue, you've done a heck of a job.
I am assuming by wire management you mean put the wires under the panel. If so, I was thinking about doing that at first; however, there was a board running along the rail that would have pinched the wires unless I bored it out. I did not want to touch the integrity of that board so I ran the wires as the factory did on top of the panels. I appreciate the comment, next one I may try to remove the exterior trim.
I'm sorry that I made these observations and didn't mention the most important one. You did a good job! I also thank you for sharing, I'm sure many took a positive, as did I. Good luck to you, sir. 👍👍
I think it turned out well , I like how your rolled the rubber right over the old palomino sticker , you may have been able to sand that sticker some to get the rubber to lay a little flatter , nice work , especially that interior ,
@@vitbing Thank you, If I could do it again I would have sanded off the palomino sticker. I thought that the rubber paint would be thicker and cover more of the imperfections, lesson learned. (and sorry it took me so long to respond., I must have missed your comment somehow :))

Gracias, me alegro de que haya ayudado.
Great job.
Thanks so much, I appreciate the comment!

Excellent videos, thank you. Just curious how long the entire roof project took? Apologies if you already answered this question elsewhere.

@@parkedredesign I see. Thank you. You’ve inspired me to get cracking on mine.
@@comfycozygamer3892 Great! If you have questions along the journey please feel free to message me.
What do you think of pressure washing it before you began this job? Just an observation as I just got an 1999 Coleman pop-up today?
I didn't pressure wash this one because it had a lot of holes in it, so I just hand washed it. If it didn't have all the holes I would have pressure washed it.
@@parkedredesign Thank You 😊
@@joannekennedy4093 You're Welcome
looks good, but while you had that sander out I would have removed the decal... seems nobody ever does before coating the roofs on pop ups
I agree with you, I thought the same thing after I started painting over it. Next time I would do that.
@@parkedredesign I thought the same thing but you know what, that is a hell of a lot of work you did on this and if that is the only issue, you've done a heck of a job.
@@seeya4046 I will say, I also thought the rubber paint was going to be thick enough to cover the imperfections, but it wasn't
@@seeya4046 Thank you, I appreciate that!
Wire management should've been done before attaching panels. I probably would've removed exterior trim, lights and graphics .
