Anyhow, after a trip to the parcel office I managed to collect a new sample for review; non-other than the newly packed Captain Tolley’s Creeping Crack Cure.

A couple of years ago, my Citroen 2CV screen was leaking badly on a trip to S of France - 2-3 litres/hr!Digging through marine forums the general consonances for Captain Tolley’s Creeping Crack Cure is that it’s a great product and is a staple in many toolkits. Overall, the Soundaseal RV61 is a versatile caravan sealant that’s ideal for the roof, windows, awning rail, skylight and many other surfaces within your caravan. Compatible with a wide variety of materials; rubber, glass, wood, hard plastics, existing sealants, concrete, ceramics, metals and fibreglass.

It isn’t the cheapest but it provides a high level of adhesive strength and used by many major caravan manufacturers. It’s also non-toxic meaning it can even be used to piece together broken ceramics which is great when you live on a boat as things generally seem to get smashed to pieces! Other interests include working on cars, keeping fit through sports or his home gym, caravanning and drinking great coffee.The Captain Tolley’s Creeping Crack Cure is a high quality sealant that’s perfect for problematic hairline cracks. The W4 Mastic Sealing Strip is a unique caravan sealant that’s ideal for most external trims of your caravan or motorhome. According to the brand, you can use this caravan sealant for roof vents, skylights, TV aerials, windows strips and much more. The Dekalin Dekasyl MS-5 is a polymer elastic adhesive and sealant that’s designed primarily for caravans or motorhomes. After a few applications, I waited for a day of heavy rainfall to test and unfortunately the window I had applied it too oozed a milky water as the rain made its way past the old seals and into the U-trim frame.
