T25 exterior pop up roof protection?

Post by cjkid »

Looking to repaint, seal and protect the exterior of my T25 pop-up roof as it is looking very worn and seems to be causing damp on the inside felting. Can anyone recommend a product that would help to solve this? Found something called Plasti Dip, a rubber paint. Any ideas whether this might work?

Plastic Dip is like a layer of rubber, but the slightest rip or lift and it peels right off.

I'd say it needs to have a gel coat reapplied, I have to do the same later in the summer. Was thinking along these lines, then automotive paint.

Ah looks like it does the protection, as regards to freshening up the colour side of it would this similar marine product provide this or not? Any idea?

Or do they do that gel product in colour (preferably cream)?
