Will this work on an RV with a metal roof?

It should. I used the same product on my motorhome (1986 Golfstream Sunstream with Metal Roof) last year. It worked great. Just make sure you follow the manufacturer directions. I downloaded a video from Youtube for the product I bought and it went smooth as silk. Make sure you will have suitable weather !!! Enough drying time in sun before it gets wet ! That is very important. I used the primer also because I use seam tape to seal all seams and patches as well as going around the vents on their seams. I used 2 rolls of seam tape and about 2 1/2 gallons of primer. Than used about 3 gallons of Mobile coat on a 30 foot camper. Its good to have extra though. You can re coat it later in the season to be safe.

I would say no. I used it on a camper roof it look good for two weeks then cracked and peeled off.

I see no reason why it wouldnt work. I would not mount these brackets directly to a roof. I suggest building a frame with 4 corner roof penetrations to minimize potental roof leaks then mount with these brackets to the structure.

This shouldn't be a problem. You could use a couple of half inch aluminum angle strips and mount them in the frame with screws at the angle you want. I wouldn't set them on the roof of your camper without securing them. I see a number of them on the ground at camp sites. Mine are mounted on top of our motorhome and have the ability to raise them to gain better solar. The roof is quarter inch fiber glass. If you go to Harbor Freight web site you can see how they have done theirs.

It works a lot better if the magnetic is affix to a sheet of metal like the roof of a vehicle.

I think it would be good to use on any camper or mobile home roof to help stop a leak, especially at a seam, but it would also be a good idea to seal around the edges of the EternaBond with a bead of DiCor sealant. That's what I did on my aluminum camper roof and it worked like a charm.

Hi, you would need a awning rail to mount to the van. It is for rvs but may work on van. Not sure if there is a flat area at the top of the van or if you would have enough room underneath it.

For this you are going to need to measure the how high the glass goes when the roof it's fully open, and compare with the specifications provided for the roof rack. I personally think it will. The problem is what other products are you going to attach to the roof rack For instance, the bike rack is have now won't clear. Good luck and let other one now if possible.

I don't see why not. If the van's roof is relatively flat and you are willing to drill holes then it should work. If there is a slight curve to the roof then the brackets may have to be bent slightly, which is not very difficult as I had to do this because my shell had curvature. For the price this is the best option. Go for it. Measure twice drill once. And use silicone. Good luck!

Yes, I even called the factory to verify that it was acceptable. I used it on my 2002 Coachmen RV which has an EPDM rubber roof. I used a brush to cut-in around AC, vents, etc. and then used a roller for the main part of the roof. The problem I had was getting the 5 gallon pail up on the roof. I am not as strong as I was 10 years ago. I cannot say how long it will last because I did it in October 2013.

I just checked the Renogy web site for further details. When you click on the 200W mono starter kit you can find the installation instructions including directions for mounting on an RV roof. They suggest the use of "well nuts" or expansion nuts which will provide a more water proof and secure mounting on an RV roof. You need to purchase the nuts from Renogy.

The cable should go all the way through ti down spoute.Should check with use of cable on metal roof.

If paired with a good roof penetration sealant, it should work. Also, you might need longer bolts.

This product is meant for the roof of your RV to seal rubber fiberglass or metal roofs.

I don't know. I use it on a rubber roof RV and coat it every year. It is a good product.

I used them to mount solar panels to the roof of an RV.With regard to a shingled roof, I would ask the manufacturer what is the mounting system.Jim

Good question. I guess this depends on how the metal roof is fastened where the gutter meets it. I would suggest contacting scott at LeafsOut. his email is scott@leafsout.com . He was very helpful when I made my purchased and answered all of my questions.
