I spent 4 days cleaning and prepping the roof for a fresh coat of Snow Coat.  :( Weather predictions looked great.  ;D The stuff i used this time was a bit more spendy, but it's a lot nicer to work with. Starts out light blue, which I wouldn't have minded if it stayed that color because it went with the buses color scheme nicely, then turns white as it cures. I finished in the afternoon and it looked really good. Put away a couple of beers and some rum in celebration  :P Checked the weather forecast early evening and they predicted heavy fog by the AM. :-\ By late evening the forecast turned to drizzle by AM. :( It ended up raining by AM and my roof is a bright blue again  :'( Fortunately, no streaks running down sides of bus so I'm keeping fingers crossed. :-X Clouds burned off by noon and the sun is shining bright and blue is turning back to white  ;D  :) Only had a few streaks that wiped right off. All is good.
BTW-I kinda like this new look for the forum.  :D

Back to the U.S. after 8 years in Europe.  
Bought a 1997 MCI 102D3 with Allison B500 on November 17, 2021 in Syracuse, NY.  Commenced living it that day and  drove it to Florida and New Mexico.  Converting as we go.  https://basicsuds.com

If you Google snow roof systems you should come up with it. I used Henry's roof coating in the past and although it wasn't bad, I get a better feeling from this. The Henry's streaked down the side even 2 weeks after it was on. I picked it up at an Ace Hardware store so I'm sure it's easy to find. $30.gallon. The first coat I ever put up there took almost 5 gals. Now it only takes about a gallon and I do it every several years depending on where we're parked. Trees are bad for RV roofs and so is wet and warm that encourages fungi growth.
Good luck and HTH,
Will
