My Class B fiberglass roof had a small gouge and a small spot of spider web cracking. I cleaned it and covered with eternabond tape 2 years ago. No problems.

I sanded with 320 grit, and really cleaned the roof.
I removed all the old sealant around all vents and other openings.
After all the cleaning was done I applied 2 coats of white Flex-seal.
Looks great we will see how long it lasts.
cost was about the same as all the other coating on the markets ($109.00)
Our roof was not leaking, it simply looked horrible, looks great now.
Check that Flex Seal. Last I knew it didn't have a UV barrier in it, which obviously is bad for something like a MH roof.
They may have changed the formula, I do not know, but if I was using it on a roof I'd sure want to know!
**Update** I just looked, the description I read said it was UV resistant - assuming I was reading about the one you used.
There are 24 hours in every day - it all depends on how you choose to use them.

Once cured, flex seal liquid forms a durable, breathable, weatherproof, non-slip barrier that's resistant to rain, snow, sun, wind, hail, air, moisture, UV degradation, extreme temperatures and natural weathering.
