2000 Safari Class C Filon roof

[n-jay]

Hi,
I posted some questions last month and got some great responses so here's another one...
Again, about my filon roof. What should I use to treat or protect this roof? It is not leaking but it is 6 years old. If i use the wrong product I know I cold potentially ruin the roof. As I learned, this roof is attached at the edges and "floats" I imagine to expand and contract.
Has anyone coated their filon roof recently? Any suggestions?
THANKS!
Once again, unless we get a warm snap this will be another project for Spring.
I'm debating weather or not to cover the roof just to be safe. Ir is parked in an open air lot.
Thanks Again,
JOHN

In 2006 these folks painted the Filon roof of their '96 Safari Serengeti motor home with SealBest White Elastomeric roof coating.

They did another coach, (a '96 Safari Sahara), in 2012.

This topic comes up often on the Trek Tracks message board as many Safari Trek's used the same type roof prior to the 2002 model which I own. The usual advice given is to repaint with any good marine fiberglass deck paint and reseal the vents and end caps with eternalbond tape.
