Frequently Asked Questions
How do I clean an RV FlexArmor roof?
You can use any kind of household cleaner you want. This roof system has an extremely high chemical resistance and is not effected by cleaners or bleach. It is designed to be “self cleaning” which means most everyday dust and dirts wash off when it rains. It is non porus so it resists many stains and mildew.
Do I need to caulk around my fixtures?
This roof system was designed to remove all the caulking joints and seams in an rv roof. You no longer have any exposed screws or joints to caulk. Our chemical bond removes the need for caulking.
What is the maintenance to a FlexArmor roof?
The only maintenance to this roof system is the topcoat. It is a polymer coating developed for our system and will last 20+ years. If you see the grey roofing material coming through it is time for a new white topcoat. This is a product that can be applied by you or you can bring it back to a location for reapplication.
You do not have to caulk your roof or apply special cleaners or conditioners on the FlexArmor roof system.
Is this roof a bedliner? Rhino? Linex?
FlexArmor is not the same as the spray-on truck bed liners or other polyureas you may have seen advertised. While those products were designed for entirely different applications, FlexArmor was engineered specifically for RV roofs. It is a pure polyurea that is sprayed at a minimum of 3/16″ thick, creating a seamless, flexible, and watertight barrier. Unlike other coatings that can crack, chalk, or require ongoing maintenance, FlexArmor bonds permanently to your roof and is tough enough to handle hail, branches, and harsh weather—without caulking or seams. This is why FlexArmor is the only RV roof system that comes with a lifetime, transferable no-leak warranty.
What is the difference between your roof system and ones that are done onsite?
FlexArmor is a product that requires a special machine to spray it. There is so much equipment involved and due to overspray, it is not an application to be done outside. We also have a lot of prep work to do on the roof and we remove things such as A/Cs and vent lids so we do all work in a controlled environment. Since our equipment, product and prep processes are different than onsite products, we do all work in a fixed, indoor location.
What if I have to replace anything on my roof?
When we do your roof we replace all your vent pipes and lids, refrigerator base and lids, standard vent lids, install new a/c gaskets. Your new bases are sealed in under the product so they will last as long as the roof.
If you ever need to replace something for some reason or add something such as solar panels, we can remove the component, install a new one and respray just that area that was cut through. If you are somewhere else at the time, grind or cut through the coating to get the part out, replace it and caulk it until you can get back to an approved FlexArmor facility for respraying.
How does this compare to other coatings in strength, flexibility and thickness?
FlexArmor has over 600% elongation. This makes it extremely flexible and provides is with more than enough movement to move with your RV and during temperature changes. The strength is over 3500 psi tear strength which makes it next to impossible to puncture or snag and cause a tear. Our thickness is 187 mils or 3/16 of an inch thick.
Can I park my RV there overnight?
We can provide overnight parking with 50 AMP electrical if needed. Please contact us for more details prior to scheduling your appointment.
