Title: caulking/window leak
Post by: christopher on March 26, 2010, 10:14:22 AM
I have to fix a leak by the behind the driver seat. it looks lIke its coming in behind the stainless under the A window.
What kind of sealer should i use? or where does the water traditionally come in from?

The small window right behind the door on my 5A leaked no matter what i tried. I finally got some stuff called C. R. Laurance  RTV 308 which i believe is a type of silicone sealant. Haven't had a drop of water in 6 years. This is the stuff that Peninsula Glass uses between the glass for their double pane windows. I have also used it to seal the seam on my rear cap. Hard to find though. I am currently out and am looking for a place that carries it. I get the black, i think it may come in clear but i have never tried that.

This stuff works on some hard to get to leaks.  It seeps in before drying.  I believe that Camping World may carry it.
