86Dolphino Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 last night pulling away from a parking lot apparently I turned to sharp and threw my rear end of the coach back in and tore like a 2 foot long gouge down the side of my RV on this car port. its at the very end on the passenger side and its like 2 inches from the top. its bad but it could have been worse. It can be fixed if take off the J-rail and pull off the top dark brown 3 inch top trim, for it tore into that only any ideas if that is still available? or maybe someone has a idea on how to fill the gouge? lesson learned is when you turn out sharp it slides your behind end back in. breaks my heart to do damage to my rig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linda s Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 My favorite fix all is Flex Glue. Seals, glues and fills gaps I would remove enough top trim to pull out the siding and fill from underneath all along that area. Then smooth siding back down but don't push too hard. this stuff works fast. Not a lot of time to change your mind. wipe off excess and let dry a few hours before you screw your trim back on. matching paint is going to take some work but once sealed you have time for that. Use the caulking gun size for ease of application https://www.amazon.com/Flex-Rubberized-Waterproof-Adhesive-Formula/dp/B078TPCRQ2 Linda S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86Dolphino Posted April 5, 2019 Author Share Posted April 5, 2019 Thank you Linda, that's sounds pretty easy and cheap. I also feel like I've seen that at Wal-Mart at the "Seen on TV" area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linda s Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 For the tubes that fit calking gun you usually need to hit a hardware store. I've bought it at Ace Linda S I always have some. So strong. Completely put my weed eater together last summer and it's still holding. That stuff is taking some torque there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
