Scratched side

Scratched the side of my Roo on some tree branches while backing in an impossible site in Estes Park. Is there such a thing as touch up or the like to prevent water and other elements seeping in/deteriorating the laminate ? Thanks.

Not a body man but I would suggest you try to seal scratches with some caulk or silicone sealer to prevent any water infiltration, then call a dealer or body shop for a more permanent repair.

Do not use silicone if you are going to get it fixed later.
Nothing sticks to silicone and the body shop will not like you if they have to clean up the silicone before they repair it.

Eternabond for Emergency repair will stop (Water intrusion) but it will be a real (B----) to remove if they try to (Patch) the wall! Most wall damage leads to (Total Wall Replacement)! Youroo!!
