Roof color Enternabond tape

I have a forest river Roo with a brown/tan roof. Does anyone know if the tan tape matches? Im looking for a match for the roof, don't want it to be an off color.

Here's a link to EternaBond's web site where they show photos of the 4 colors they manufacture.

I just ordered some of this tape with the cleaner. Are you satisfied with the product and results?

Yes. I used it before on my popup. Was happy with it then so had no qualms about using it again. But like you, i did not want the blaring white tape this time, so was glad they now have it in tan.

Thanks for the input. My Roo is white so no issue with the white tape. I'm hoping to finish this before I put it away for the winter.

Thanks

I went with the 4" x 50'. I'm planning on doing all roof seams including the vents. Found it available through Amazon and with the cleaner it is $78.00. Free shipping too.

I got some last year and went with 4". You can always cut it in half.

I did mine with the tan on the roof and it matched great. I used black around the back and side edges though because it matched the black trim. Looks really nice.

I have a light greyish color roof. I went with white thinking maybe it was a bit of an off white and would match better than grey. The white tape is "very white" and the patch I did was very noticeable. Perhaps a shot of grey from a spray or something will help. Be aware!, that tape sticks like crap to a wool blanket.

Well, accomplished the winterizing today and decided to start the Eternabond tape. Cleaned the seams front and back, then around the exhaust fans and vent stack. Did go down pretty easily but my knees are not meant to be like that for long.

Plan on covering the camper by this weekend and wait until the spring. Hopefully this system won't let me down.
