just taking some old photos of my phone and came across this pic of me half way through resealing the sky light on my Luna caravan, if you look closely you can see my Roma in the background

Hi PLANK - looks like a messy job! Assuming it was leaking, how old is the van? What're you using for sealant?

no not leaking just precautionary as the caravan is a 2001 model, I keep a range of caravan sealants (even different colours) as I am that sad

Caravans this age are still on the old faithful non setting bedding sealants.

A lot of very new caravans us that, I'm not convinced as it makes a very permanent joint that can be almost impossible to undo again without causing damage

But as it seems to be the way the industry is going I suppose I will have to catch up sooner or later
