TPO roof on our 2015 Montana?
I called Dicor today because I thought we had a EDPM rubber roof like our 2005 Montana had on our new 2015. The customer service person said that Dicor stopped selling EDPM roofing to Keystone around the model year 2012? Is this true? I was just trying to get some information on stain removal from air conditioner run off that occurred this summer.
If this is true is there a difference in care between EDPM and TPO rubber roofs?
Thanks

My '13 model has the EPDM roof by Dicor. Wasn't aware that Keystone had changes roofing materials.

Alfa Systems recommends using these products for cleaning their roof material, Top Job or Spic and Span and a medium bristled brush.

The easiest way to personally find out what roof material you have is remove the inner frame from any ceiling vent (just 4 few screws) and lift up the roof material that has been folded downward inside the opening. If the back is black, it is EPDM ... if the material is a solid color (white) or has a fleece like backing, it is TPO. I can't see why Simple Green, Awesome, Camco rubber roof cleaner, Thetford rubber roof cleaner, or Protect All rubber roof cleaner and a soft bristle brush will harm either one.
Since there are different TPO materials ... just a tid bit lifted from Dicor's website about sealant should one have a TPO roof and need to touch up seams." If your TPO has a fleece backing then Lap Sealant will probably be the right choice. But if your TPO does not have a fleece backing then Dicor Ultra Sealant System should be used. "

The keystone sales literature dated jan 2013 says edpm but does not say anything about who made it. Nice to know about id'ing by backing. John
