    Legacy fiberglass roof sealant

    Hi all! We have a 2024 442 with the fiberglass roof cover. It appears the factory used two different sealants. Everything has the white rubbery sealant except for the shower skylight. It looks like they used the self leveling sticky stuff and then topped it with the rubbery sealant. Does...
