Find Best Price at Amazon"I have used my hands to spread lots of things from elmers glue to jb weld. I noticed immediately that I couldn't simply rub my fingers together to "roll" the material to get it off, like you can with most glues. Now I had this satanic cement on my hand AND the paper towel had created a horrid mesh of filth that was resistant to every product known to man. I spent a minute yanking and finally got the towel off and saw the sad reality that all that pulling had made ZERO impact on removing any of the gunk. I started yelling for my wife and begged her to google this filth in order to find a solution....you know....since I couldn't use my phone for lack of having a second hand. I went and sat down on the couch dejectedly and turned on Season 5 Episode 4 of Dexter to make me feel better....although it didn't help much. I really needed to go to bed so I hit the shower and tried to wash my body with my brand new plastic hand. Even if the label on the back does say that simple rinsing of water and soap will solve the issue."
"This is a great product, a little bit tricky to use, wear heavy gloves when uses and think twice before your apply because there is no easy way to remove it also when it came in contact with other materials like concrete, wood or paint it can show up on a dark ugly color, as i said before wear gloves and protect the area you don't want to mess up."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Knowing that the roof on the RV would eventually leak because man was created foolish enough to forget to put a cover on his RV in the hot sun, God created EternaBond Roof Seal tape. Do you want to seal the fine cracks in the EDPM roof rubber on your RV - FOREVER? You cut it to length, peel the clear backing off and firmly press it onto the roof of your coach. It will probably outlast the roof around it until you are left with no rubber roof save for the parts you stuck this onto. My plan is to slowly cover every inch of the roof on my 34' Bounder over the next few years until it is completely covered. Seriously - if these guys made a peel-and-stick roof covering in one piece I'd use it, except for the fact that I fear I would be in real danger of becoming stuck to it during installation, leaving myself helpless on the roof of my RV like a wayward mosquito caught in the web of a black widow, or a criminal caught in that spider-individual's web of justice, resigned to my fate of imobility. Fifty feet of this stuff is a lot, but at the same time you might be surprised how many little cracks and stuff you have up there, plus it is good to have some on hand in case of future leaks, or the sudden need reattach an arm after a bazaar kayaking accident."
"I bought it to anchor the new flexible, thin solar panels I purchased to the roof of my travel trailer."
"The guy in the Eternabond video uses his fingers to apply pressure (not the roller) and he uses a utility knife to cut the tape. Something else about the utility knife is important which is that it can be used to easily lance any air bubbles or "tents" that occur has you apply the Eternabond. The Eternabond website says to use a pin to pop air bubbles and describes the procedure for what to do for "tenting" and I found that also very helpful. As it shows that where it tents or bubbles, the important thing is only to lance it and smooth it over and apply another layer if necessary or to make it prettier. I am totally new to this and could be doing it wrong so I'm just going to get to the pictures ... First I noticed the trouble spot by the back rear where the caulking was breaking down and this looked like an area where it was possible for water to pool. When I applied the eternabond tape, I pretty much put it above where I wanted it (with back peeled off) and let it kind of fall into place by gravity as I guided it laying it as flat as possible. then when it was flat, I went about applying pressure from the middle out and working out all the tents and air bubbles and I pressed on the sealant. I used: pair of nice, sharp scissors to cut the tape (clean scissors as necessary with acetone if they get gunked). utility knife (clean with acetone if it gets gunked). acetone as described above. dishsoap as described above. my fingers to press down to ensure surface adherence (not the roller). On purpose here I did not use the tape over the black rubber or the gutter because both are in good condition with no breaches so I wanted to leave them as-is."
