Is there something like Kool seal product out there for campers? Beside a metal roof, what can I do to stop some small leaks? This is a stationary camper, it won’t be pulled down the road.

I just use Kool Seal or whatever brand they have at Home depot.

Dicor lap sealant on the cracks and seams You need to use a sealant as this gentleman suggests that matches up with the material your roof is made out of. They make self leveling as well as non sag for siding. What is your roof made out of? I lived in a camper for 2 years.

Let me explain a little better details. It’s a 34’ long camper, mid 90s model and I am wanting to seal the whole roof cheap. I understand a metal roof would be a good option, but i don’t want to put $1500 over a $500 investment. Just wanna roll out something on the roof with a paint roller for some insurance and to seal up a few small leaks.

Whatever you put on it MUST be compatible with what the original roof is made of. If not, the new coating will separate from the original stuff, water will pool between the 2 materials and you'll NEVER stop it from leaking. Ask me how I know.
For a $500 camper I'd buy some new 5V tin and some good screws with rubber washers. And I'd put Lexel around the screws after I screwed it down.
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.
