Common RV Roof Coating Tips and Tricks

An RV roof coating is the best maintenance partner of your RV. It protects the RV from harsh weather conditions, it blocks UV-rays and most importantly it waterproofs the RV. However, most RV roof coatings results in premature failure because they are not properly cared or maintained. So, let us see how to properly maintain an RV roof coating.

Visual Inspection

Inspect the RV roof at-least twice a year especially when it is expose to harsh weather conditions like hail, snow or wind storm. This will help to identify potential problems before they become a major issue.

  • Water ponding: It means that there are uneven spots on the roof which allows the water to collect like a pond on the roof.

  • Swelling: If you happen to see that some areas on the roof are swollen, it means that water has penetrated into underlying deck or roof structure.

  • Signs of Water Leaks: If there are water stains inside the walls or ceiling it means that the roof has been damaged because of water leaks.

Washing and Cleaning

While RV roof coatings are extremely durable and weather resistant they do require cleaning and washing.

  • Clean-up & wash it: Clean the RV roof from dirt and debris like such as branches and sticks, pinecones, and other items that might scratch or damage the roof. Use bristle brush and mild detergent for washing up oil or other residues.

  • Check the Gutters: Don’t forget to clean the RV gutters too. Leaves, twigs, pinecones and needles are the few things which can build up in your gutters, eventually slowingdown the movement of water.

  • Protect: once you are done with cleaning, it is advisable to apply a protectant. A protectant can help prevent staining, and it helps prevent visible edges from becoming unsightly. Make sure you use a protectant that is compatible with your RV roof coating.
