He put me on to Vulkem 116 Polyurethane Sealant made by Tremco. When I resided my home, I used this stuff and it has remained pliable for the past 18yrs. So, I have used it on my Royale to seal the gap between the awning and the roof and other spots as needed. Comes in lots of different colors. Don't know if it is paintable. Otherwise, no issues. JWID
OH, and I should mention, if you use this stuff, be patient with drying time. It can take several days to dry so it is not tacky to the touch. Also, I'd wear rubber gloves of some kind. Stuff is sticky as hell, and is hard to remove from your skin.
