If you want to save what is left in the caulking tube, Stumpy Nubs just had a video about this today. Use the finger from a nitrile glove and put over the tip and squeeze some of the caulk in. The caulk will cure in the finger tip and protect the contents of the tube.

This was very good timing, it’s raining all week here and we just noticed a leak in the window over the dinette! Thank you!

One of the many things I like about your channel is that you break jobs down to the simplest steps and explain the whys and wherefores of each step. That can be applied to any job and encourages people to try things. You also don't fuss about perfection; making it clear that when it's important to be perfect, it's worth the effort but that cosmetics are not the be all and end all. I hope that makes sense. IE get the caulk in deeply but it doesn't have to look like an episode of hgtv that looks pretty even if it won't last. Happy Travels. I hope your Mom is doing ok.

That window was never sealed fright from the start. What you scraped off is crusty butyl tape that oozed out and dried. When windows are installed butyl tape is applied under the seal of the window frame and body and silicone over the top of that, to keep it from drying out.

Thanks for the DIY info.Will file away in my "good to know" info bank. You never know when these tips will come in handy! Glad you made it to your mom's ok. Hoping you have a good and refreshing time while you're there.

Good job! I’ve used a piece of saran wrap on my used calk and always keeps it fresh. Thanks for posting your tips!

[redrvfun]

Hi!! A lot of caulking guns have a skewer hinged near the end of the barrel. Just looks like a piece of hanger with a brad through it

[deborahabc]

You might know this, but there is a hole on the caulking gun to insert the tube tip so you can cut it off.

It’d be worth checking the seal around your storage bays also.

I had to come back and watch this video again because it was my turn to have to redo my windows. Nothing was leaking however it had been years since they had been done and I decided to be proactive and just do it. Thank you for being a pioneer and blazing the trail for me

[jhemnes]

Woohoo good job!
After my maiden voyage, in my new to me rig, I know that I need panels on top to charge my house battery while driving. So just just ordered my 200 watt solar kit along with butyl tape and self leveling sealant. I'll be installing it myself so wish me luck😊

Butyl under the window flange experiences very little exposure to the elements. The butyl on the outside Collects dirt and is effected by the elements. Hard plastic putty knifes, sharpened with a metal file, every time its needed, avoids nicking any surface while removing the bulk of Dicor or butyl that has pushed out from under the window flange. Mineral Spirits does a fine job of removing both butyl and dicor sealant. Taping off the body of the rv, about a 1/4 inch from flange and pulling tape before new sealant skins works well for us.

As a newbie in a class c, all the information I can get is so helpful! Thank you for the great videos on maintaining the rig ! Your awesome!

[luxmorgan-nadeau]

This was such a great video and super helpful. Resealing can seem so daunting, but I'm ready to take on the task now. Thank you!

[PookieK]

These are the kind of useful videos I appreciate- thank you for showing us this. So glad your project was a success. I never doubted it would be!

Boy! You are make me feel I can do things also… Just love you, you are your own person, I’m handy in some things, but taking a chance I don’t do to good, but as getting older I do take it. Stay safe

[DragonflightAdventures]

Thanks for this helpful video. I’ve got Waggle and definitely am more comfortable when away from rv.
