Ready to apply eternabond tape

Ok I have a 2010 2607 ultra lite that I would like to cover the front and rear seams along with other areas showing calk. I measured and 6" x 50' should be plenty.

Can someone recommend a place that offers a deal on this size?

Do I need to purchase the roller and primer or can I use something else?

This is my project for the summer so I'm looking to get everything I need to do the job right.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

I purchased mine form RVupgrades.com. Seemed to be best price including shipping I could find. I would recommend both the primer and roller as my tape came off. I have just recieved an e mail from eternabond stating they will replace the tape and also add some caulking to be applied ot the leading edges of the tape. I used acetone to prep surface and the larger sections came off. Looks like the leading edges caught the wind and the rest peeled back. They recommended using a roller, but did not mention using their primer.
Good luck.

I orderd mine from here too, should be here tomorrow. Looking forward to an afternoon of Eternabonding this weekend.
You can get Acetone anywhere, Target, Wally World or Home Depot. Just look in the paint dept. I don't think it comes in a spray can. I got a pint and I think it will be enough.

Acetone is in the paint section of Lowes/Home Depot and comes in quart size cans. I can't imaging you would use a whole quart, but they don't sell smaller size cans.

Be very careful, wear rubber gloves and don't spill it.

Ok picked up the ACETONE and rubber gloves. Eternabond is schedules for delivery this Thurs. Still need to get seam roller and wait till there is a nice stretch of clear weather. Thinking of getting Protect All cleaner and protector for the roof to put the icing on the cake once I have the eternabond installed.

Just remember that the ONLY thing Eternabond will NOT stick to is silicone. So don't wash the roof with anything before applying the tape that might have silicone as an ingredient.

For those whos roof liner goes over the sides then is clamped down via a rail...do you eternabond over that too or just the caulk on the roof?

I ran the seam tape over the side and covered that hold down brace to make sure to water could back up under the EB and get to the Dicor sealant under the EB. I did not EB the entire length on the side brace clamp. While you should make sure the Dicor is still in place, any water that intrudes there would run down the outside of the exterior wall IMO.
