I did same procedure to my enclosed trailer... scraper, wire wheel, rubbing alcahol, eterna bond tape, self leveling lap seal... no leaks or seperation... done. Nice job.
My Dad used to build wooden houseboats with inboard car motors for propulsion. He would overbuild EVERYTHING. If a 2 x 2 would work then he'd use a 2 x 4. I see you do the same thing. I'd buy a trailer that you built. You're thorough, neat and smart. These are traits of a craftsman, these are the traits of an artist.
Thanks for the comment Bent Nickel.
You’re videos are great and thorough. You have a good attention to detail. I really enjoy your channel. I have been watching your videos for a couple of years now and I can’t wait until I can buy my cargo trailer. I will follow your build to a “T”.
Love the care that you take in your projects. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching.
Another great video Kevin. You are so good and thorough in your work. Really hope the roof coating works for you. You have put a lot of work into it to have it fail. Thanks!
Time will tell we will see.
I'm looking at doing one of these next I just finished a teardrop camper build and did it in fiberglass resin, so far no stress fractures. But I do like the ready to go part of a cargo trailer, keep up the good work Kevin.
Glad you got that seal done. You will never be sorry you put this unit in. Heat and cool can't be beat.NO DRIPS = BLISS EH !
I love it it's a coleman mach 3 I haven't got the heat yet in time I will.
Hey Kevin u could reuse ur fantastic fan over the shower stall, u can use the fan when you don’t need the ac. Just a thought. Great job on the camper.
That's a great idea!
Try wiping some vinegar and maybe it might stick a little bit better. Love your build very good job
Thanks for the info Thomas and thanks for watching.
I hope that elastic coating works out. I'm almost at the point to put something on the roof of my camper. I have all the walls done, but only primer and one coat of paint on the roof. I wanted to paint it with white. All the other walls are desert tan. Let us know if that's good stuff as I might want to go that route too.
I hope the roofing sealant works out for your Kevin. Happy to see you got an air conditioner! I wished the roof vent we have was wired, I'd take the fantastic fan off your hands! Thank you for sharing!
A $100.00 + shipping should be good for the fan and the cover
I have $185.07 in the fan and $60 some in the cover.
Kevin Robinson I just have a regular vent fan in there now so there's no power ran to that manual fan. I wouldn't know where to get the power from to run it. Thank you though!
Nice job Kevin
Thanks Dan.
No video on installation of the ac?
Sorry about that but it was mostly about the roof repair.
like the garage
Thanks M Ten.
Looks like you did a good job on the roof my friend I believe it is going be all right if not you’ll figure something else out no doubt about it thanks for the video and the update my friend G-man out
I sure hope it's ok lots of work but we will see.
Keep the fan and have both fan and a/c. When you only have 12v, you will wish you still had that fan. Have to have shore power for that a/c.
You sure are a hard worker with a lot of clever ideas. Good job. Do you ever contact the company any more when you find their mistakes?
You have so many different skills. How did you learn them all?
Use a good feller Kebn' sho nuff ye iz! got nuttin but big props and good thang ta say bout-cha. So looked kindly towardz dat roofin' idear.
So how was the paint ??
It is holding up great no problems with it.
@@Robinson-Homestead What product did you use?
@@sirtedricwalker2979 🤣🤣🤣 trick questions
I've heard a heat gun works excellent for removing silicone sealant, may have been a lot easier prep?
Good tip thanks for watching.
Kevin, are you happy with this re-roofing project outcome now as its been on the trailer more than a year?
It work out great on issues all looks good.
Ok thank you
Kevin if 280 zone doesn't take the fan and if you aren't going to keep it let me know as well
will do.
Hope you have some heavy duty wire for the AC draws lot more then fan. Is it 12 volt?
FixmyToyota That fan probably had 14 gauge wire on it. I bet Kevin uses 8 gauge or maybe 6 gauge. He builds everything the way it SHOULD be built.
I used 12-2 wire thanks for the comments.
Good. AC is better than DC if you have a shore hookup.
Yeah, you don't want to run the AC off of a battery.
In a recent video, CheapRVliving showed you need a minimum of 600 watts, a slow starting air conditioner and a battery bank of 1000 watts to maintain a 5000 btu air conditioner during the day.
Kevin, I think you were dealing with two different materials on your roof. One might have been galvanize aluminium and plain aluminium that came up from the side walls. The sealant stuck to one but not the other.
Maybe.
Kevin, can you tell me what model that fantastic fan is? I might be willing to take it off your hands for a good price, your videos have been very helpful for me.
280zone the model FA1260HWUSD81 fan-tastic vent fan I hope I got that right hard to see it.
I have Total of $185.07 in the fan I think $60 some in the cover you can have it for $100.00 + shipping I will see what the shippng is for you.You can email me kdr6688@gmail.com
Hey buddy how is the roof holding up thanks
Holding up great no issues Travis.
@@Robinson-Homestead thanks
How did the rubber roof on the trailer work out and if it worked out good what product did you use I'm doing the same setup.
It's a latex I'm going to do an update video not sure that i like it I thought it was rubber my son bought it for us.
What brand trailer was that? thanks Kevin
Diamond cargo.
Where did you get your roof coating and what is it called
My son got it for me not sure I will look for it I think it was from lowes.
where did you get that tape from that you were putting on here? the name of it or where did you buy it from?
ETERNABOND www.eternabond.com thanks for the comment.
Hey Kevin, can you tell me the name of the company that built your rig. I think I want to avoid them. Thank you
DIAMOND CARGO thanks for the comment.
Diamond Cargo is horrible. I’ve posted my negative review with photos to Google. Thank you Kevin. I am getting ready to do this to my 8.5x20 trailer only after 2 years of owning it. I found out the hard way through mold and rusting carpentry tools.

Why didn't you buy an actual rubber roof kit. You get what you pay for.
You are right.
I used the stuff from Home Depot.
Allied with brush (after prep).
Each coat goes 90 degrees from the previous.
4 coats.
Never leaked after 6 years or so in very cold and very hot temps.
