Ambroid Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 For several years I have used a commercial EPDM (rubber) roof restoration product on my R/V restorations with fantastic results. The product is called WhiteBrite. It is manufactured by Simon Roofing in the Youngstown, Ohio area. Several years ago the product received the New Equipment Digest magazine's Product of The Year Award. As a facility manager I was looking for a way to reduce my cost of replacing roofs on government buildings. After watching several roof restoration projects, it occurred to me that this product would be ideal for my RV's roof. If the manufacturer guarantees their product on a metal or EPDM roof for 10 years, it would be worth a try on a R/V. I applied the product to all my roof seams and penetrations with a 2 inch wide paint brush. The product is very flexible when dried. Being water based, it flows into cracks and depressions just as the water we are trying to keep out does. The real question, Did it work? After four years, NO LEAKS.

Ambroid Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 Where did you purchase the product? I researched it on the internet and emailed the Company but have not received a reply. Have you tried calling their home office or one of their regional offices? If you are in the Ohio area, I will be glad to give you some of the product.

Gene S Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 (edited) Wite-Brite 70 Karago Avenue Boardman, OH 44512 (800) 523-7714 (330) 629-7663 FAX (330) 629-7399 http://www.simonroofing.com/single-ply-roof.html Sue, Like you I was favorably impressed with Ambroid's eval of this product. I intend to contact the company today and Price/research/purchase the product (If it doesn't cost a jillion dollars). I have 91 Spirit and regret to say my the pinholes in the aluminum roof are really driving me nuts, I fear rhe first cloudburst will fill my coach with wate. I have cleaned and waxed my roof but there doesn't appear to be anyway to toally remove/fill the pinholes(short of a EPDM (rubber) roof restoration product) Edited February 6, 2007 by Gene S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
