RV Sealant - Non-Sag vs Self-Leveling
The kind of sealant you apply to your RV is important. To determine the type of sealant you need for your application, you will want to consider what it is you are sealing and where it is on your RV.
Self-leveling sealant is designed to level out as you apply it. The thick liquid slowly flows into a level position as gravity takes effect. This is particularly useful when sealing flat surfaces, like around a roof vent, AC, or skylight. As you apply the sealant, gravity will cause it to settle into an even line, giving you a clean, low-profile look.
Non-sag sealant is designed to retain its shape as you apply it. The consistency of the liquid is thick but malleable enough to be easily applied without causing sagging or slumping. This is useful when sealing vertical surfaces, such as the edges of a wall, window, or vent. As you apply the sealant, it will harden just enough to keep the liquid from drooping, giving you a clean, even look.

Hi there RV and camper owners. Today, we're going to be taking a look at LaSalle Bristol's self-leveling sealant. This sealant is going to be great for sealing up any of your roof mounted accessories, or taking care of any potential leaks that you've got here on the roof. It's quick, dry, it's ready for road use after about one to two hours, so you can get right back out there on the road. And it comes in two colors. You can get it in either a white or beige.
We're going to be showing off the white today, but if you had a different color that you desired after it's cured, you can paint over top of it as well. When working on your roof, after installing things to it, you'll typically want to cover up all of your fasteners with a self-leveling sealant to ensure that you stay sealed, and we don't have any rot forming on our roof from moisture damage. The Bristol self leveling sealant is going to be a great option. And you typically want it to be a self-leveling sealant when working on your roof, because we want it to kind of spread out, level out flat with our roof and cover a large wide area, so that way we don't have water that can get in underneath our components. We're going to be using it to seal up our antenna today.
And when you ever you go to seal up your components, you want to make sure you come at least a few inches around the outside of the component. And that's why the self-leveling is really nice because as we pile it up on our component here, it is going to start to kind of settle down and spread out and that's going to help it achieve full coverage across the entire base of our components, as well as provide plenty of coverage around the outside. Because most of your roof here you see, it's kind of a textured surface, which has a lot of grooves and passageways for moisture to get into, to get underneath your objects. So that's why self-leveling sealant is so important because it covers up your components on the roof, and it also will cover up a nice area around that. So that way, these little grooves and imperfections in your roof, aren't going to create pathways that are going to lead directly to your objects.
You're going to have a nice barrier of your self-leveling sealant. When you receive your sealant, you'll use a caulk gun to apply it. I want to make sure we snip the end and then before we can actually utilize the sealant here, we do need to open it up. So we're just going to take use a screwdriver or a pick to go down in there and just pop it open. And now we're ready to use the sealant.
If you don't pop that open, when you go to squeeze your trigger here, what can happen is more often than not, it actually blows out the backside. So don't forget to pop it before you use it. We're going to make sure we come all the way up on top of the base here. We're going to be applying this all the way around. I'm just gonna go ahead and cover up the backside and kind of do each side at a time here. We're going away over our coaxial cable on this particular one, because of the way that it runs in there. You'll want to be very generous with the self-leveling sealant. Cause this is your roof. This is really important. This is what's protecting everything inside from moisture damage and stuff like that. So, they want to make sure that it stays that way. If you have any fasteners on the outside that you we're just plugging up holes with, make sure you get those coded generously as well. And so here you can see, this is kind of what we're looking for here, we've completely covered the base and we've covered it around, coming in some cases, several inches around to make sure that we've got full coverage around any of those areas. And that completes our look at LaSalle Bristol's self-leveling sealant..
