If you want to do it right the first time and do not mind a little travel
and spending a few bucks try this. Go to this web link:
http://www.rvleaks.com/locations.htm and locate a facility you can travel to
easily. Call and ask how much they charge and then decide if you are
willing to do the repair their way. The Sealteck system lightly pressurizes
the rv and then soap solution is applied to the seams. Bubbles show up
right away. Airstream factory service center uses this system as well as
many dealers. Costs money, but it is a good leak locator.
Video available here: http://www.rvleaks.com/locations.htm Bubbles appear at
the opening which may not be anywhere near the inside destination.

Subject: [A/S] How to stop a leak....again!
We had a leak somewhere on the left side of our Streamline. At first the
leak just showed up in the back bathroom from the corner of the window.
Then it added the closet at the end of the inside roof panel.
This past summer I got vulkum (sp) and all was well from NC to Monterey,
CA. Now the leak is back in both areas and we are getting rain with more in
the forecast. Same thing happened last year. Seems like the travel across
country opens it up again.
What to do? Can't cover with a tarp due to solar panels. Is there some
kind of waterproofing seamsealing tape that can be used? Any suggestions?
Damp inside and out,
