Hi all,
We've got a Euramobil camper on a 1997 Ducato chassis. It looks like one or two screws on the extrusions at the room seams have rusted and broken over the cab and there is an obvious gap there now. The rest of the seals seem to be in OK condition for the year but this area needs to sorted quickly as I'm sure its not watertight anymore.
This is our first motorhome so I'm not too familiar with how these edges are sealed. I'm assuming I can remove the rubber strips from the centre of the aluminium extrusion, remove screws and alu extrusion, clean off old sealent, apply new sealant and screw back together. The rubber screw cover strips are perished so I will replace these and they seem to be widely available online in motorhome spares shops. I don't see the rubber seals for under the extrusion for sale anywhere though, can these usually be re-used?
I'll have to borrow a mates garage for a few days to get this sorted so I want to be as prepared as possible! There is a Wurth shop near me in Galway so I'll stock up on the Bond'n'Seal beforehand.
Any advice on what else I might need is greatly appreciated!!
