Recommended Slide-Out Roof Repair Kit And Installation Video

Recommendations For Cleaning Up Lasalle Bristol XTRM 100 PVC Sealant

Comparing Alpha Systems Superflex and LaSalle Bristol RV Roof Membranes
The Alpha Systems Superflex RV Roof Membranes like part # AL42CV uses a TPO membrane and the LaSalle Bristol RV Roof Membranes like part # 3441700534142711435 uses a PVC membrane. The TPO membrane is more resistant to punctures and wear but the PVC membrane is more energy efficient. These are the main differences but they both work well on RV's.

Recommended Alpha Systems Superflex Roof Sealant for 2005 Forest River Rockwood Ultra Lite
From what I was able to determine in my research, it looks like the 2005 Forest River Rockwood Ultra Lite is 21-feet 8-inches long and 90 inches wide, so the Alpha Systems Superflex # AL59UV should work since it provides 25-ft x 9-1/2 feet (237 sq/ft of coverage). I do recommend measuring your roof to make sure that those dimensions are correct, but as long as you're under 237 sq/ft of total roof, that kit will work.
