roof on slide outs

What is the purpose of the sealant on the outer edge of the rubber roof that looks like it has a vinyl texture on top. What can be done to replace it with some thing that will last longer and be stronger than what comes from the factory. Can it be replace with rubber roof coating?

Believe you are refering to the tape which seals the roof to the edge of the slide itself, from moisture. We have never had an issue or need to replace.

That is one of the repairs we just had done under warranty. The slides were not centered in the opening properly-causing wear on the sealant tape.

We haven't ever had a problem with it either, but if it needs replaced just put eternabond tape on the spot.
