Roof Caulking on Southwind

I am planning on caulking around the roof vents and screws on my 2000 southwind. Is there a special caulking for the rubber roof or can I just use silicone caulk ?

One of the Dicor caulks is for rubber roof (I don't remember the number) ... silicone is worthless. The Dicor products are worth every penny.

Use DICOR Lap Sealant: Self leveling: 501LSW. Using anything else and your asking for trouble.

DO NOT USE SILICONE ON RUBBER ROOF! Pardon my yelling but silicone on rubber roof is a no-no. It will deteriate it. Use Dicor lap seal
