So my coach has an antenna on the roof that is coming off. It has a crank handle on the inside of the coach and the antenna itself looks like a set of rabbit ears when it is cranked out. The cranking function only operates one side of the rabbit ears and I use a portable Sat dish when I camp and steal the box out of the house.

What would be a good way to patch up the hole after I remove it. Has 6 screw holes on the perimeter and probably a 1 1/2 hole in the center.

As a temp fix I am going to cover the holes with aluminum tape, kind of like think aluminum foil with a pretty good adhesive on the back. Boeing uses it and I think they call it Shim Tape.
