      Thanks Gavin 😀 Ours (luckily enough) isnt too bad on the roof so we got off lightly with giving our little box a short back and sides. Let us know how you get on when its in its new home! Thanks for watching. Mart & Jo

    Great little job Mart, sealant on my van is looking bit tired, I’m in process of removing locker door frames and applying new sealant. Battery box looks like a pain I’ll use this method on that . Thanks for sharing 👍

    Great advice, I always check & reseal where needed every year (early spring). It ensures no leaks when away. I also take sealant & a sealant gun on holiday just in case. 😊😊

      Absolutely folks, it's good to keep on top of it. Nice to see I'm not the only, "just incase - it'll come in handy" bloke 😀 Cheers for watching 👍

      A bit of a spit, polish, bead of sealer, a bit of swearing here and there, and the old fella seems to scrub up well 👍 Thanks for watching, have a great weekend and thanks for the sub! Mart & Jo

  • @peterludlow9847
    @peterludlow9847 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    My caravan is now 14 years and I would like to reseal my caravan, shouldn't you take the item off clean all old sealant off and reseal with new sealant.
    I know it's a big job but surely putting a thin bead of new sealant around old sealant which in my case is 14 years old is going to do a sound job.
    My first caravan and wonting to keep and look after it,so looking for advice. Thanks

    • @ItchyFeetcaravanners
      @ItchyFeetcaravanners  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      In our case Peter, it was just to spruce up the old excessive showing sealer, basically, that was was expelled and visible. You're dead right in that if an item is leaking then take it off and seal underneath and effectively "re-do" the job. Luckily, ours wasn't leaking so if it isn't broke, don't fix it 🙂 and we just prettfied the part you can see. Our first caravan too, so spent a week or two during lockdown tidying it up. Thanks for watching and all the best for '21. Martin & Jo.

    Nice one, liked the video, but not a great idea to use spit 👍

    • @ItchyFeetcaravanners
      @ItchyFeetcaravanners  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Totally agree with the spit but it was a needs must type of situation 😁 With silicone sealer, the bacteria in the spit makes the mould grow but luckily enough, with the Sikaflex, it doesn't happen. I hope! Thanks for watching. Mart & Jo
