Slide seals and caulking

[Randy Carston]

Hey pretty new here. We recently got a 2011 3750fl. I have 2 maintenance issues looking for quick advice on. What kind of adhesive or 3m tape type stuff to use to re- stick the front slides side wiper seal rubbers? Also what kind of caulking to re-caulk around the slide out outside trim pieces looks like old caulk has pulled away and water may be getting behind there. Thank you

If you have the same wiper seal as I, it just sticks on with the integrated 3M glue strip. There should e angle brackets at the top corners and screws to hold the bracket and seal in place. Are your seals peeling off? It would seem that after 12 years it might be time to replace them anyway. I did mine about 3 years ago. I will have to look to see if I can find what I ordered (it may have come from my dealer).

As for caulk, I used to use Pro-Flex, but others on say to stay away from it and use another product. I just can't remember the name they suggest.

As far as caulk I use Tempro 644 or 645 this is what keystone uses on there units.

I just replaced the top wiper seals on my 2013 295RLT. One was very badly deteriorated, another was just somewhat dried out and the third was still good and flexible. It's an easy job as long as lots of soapy water is used to help slide the replacements into the channels. 35' length from Amazon was about $85.

BritBox: Your seals are likely "Clip" seals. The OP has seals that simply stick to the surface of the frame.

We have a 2011 3150RL. This is the part number for the wiper seal on ours. AP Products 018-546 Clip On Wiper W/2" Wiper-7/16"X3"X35'. Guessing yours is the same. We've changed ours twice as they deteriorate in the AZ sun. It's easy and quick to change. Couldn't attach a picture of the label. You can purchase on Amazon or order via RV dealer.
