I agree with the frequent inspection goal, but can't talk the old body into it always. 🙂
Thanks again,

When I was living in California, I was caulking my rubber roof forever and nothing work. Not marine-grade caulk, not exterior flashing caulk. Rubber roof was discolored due PO making mess with eternabond.
When they all look good new, afer a season some of them would turn yellow, the rest would peel off with fingernails.
Finally few years ago Henry made Tropi Cool roof coating and after doing my house roof, I redid my camper as well. Finally something that sticks and fill the gaps. Unlike other stuff, this has minimal shrinkage, so had to do 2nd coat only along deep groves at roof edges.
Since my camper had cabover front wall repairs, I did it as well, only having to go thin coat on vertical surface as the stuff runs easily.
Now your Lance is probably having single piece aluminum roof?
When this is good, the trim finishing is common issue. I had dryrot on my Lance where with good roof, they "forget" to put sealant under slide awning trim and whole wall rotten due to that.
