    Sealant for front cap termination bar

    We had a pretty road rough 2000 miles on out now complete trip through 5 states.

    Lots of rough roads and very heavy rain.

    Rig did great with only one issue.
    One of the screws to the termination bar on the side of the front cap has backed out.

    I have already tightened it, but, what sealant do I use to reseal.

    This is what the Grand Design dealer in Sioux Falls sold me for the filon trim strip. Not a recommendation per se but what they sold me for reattaching trim over filon screws.

    I had 2 broken screws in our strip. I removed the broken screws replaced with new the used silicone to seal. That was 2 years ago and it's still holding.

    When I have to seal something on the outside of the trailer (that is not the roof), I've been using Geocel 2300 MHRV with good success. I've never used silicone, I don't think that's a great choice for the outside of an RV.

    I buy it off eBay, there are usually a few reputable sellers peddling it. The consumer version is ProFlex, which I'd probably just get from Amazon.
