EDM roof maintenance..what is really req'd?

My Classic is now 3 years old....and is stored outside all year in Arizona. My roof looks fine to my visual inspection. Is anything really required for upkeep on a EDM roof? I know if I go to Camping World they will sell me something...but my original pamphlet that came with the RV says just normal cleaning..no special sealants/treatments etc. Thanks

litespeed...
A good spot to start might be post #5 in Workshop's thread. There is so much information in this thread ...that it is worth looking at - no matter what!

I hope this helps a bit...

Litespeed, here is a link for care and maintenance of you’re roof. It is about 1/3 the way down on that page.

My prior, SOB, had a rubber roof. Other than washing the roof every time I washed the unit, I didn't do to much to it.

As far an any other maintenance.... any exterior surface that meets or laps another....having a proper seal/caulk is very important to protect the unit from moisture problems. Inspection it often and make repairs/corrections as needed.

Here's several sites to look at if you don't have them:
Rubber Roof Care
RV Reporter Article - Roof care
Dicor

Hope something helped,
