Did I miss part of this? What paint did you use? Did you remove A/C and vents or tape and paint around them? I have been looking at a roof paint for fiberglass sold bY Camping World. Steve

I used a product made bu Dicor.  I removed the vent covers but not the a/c I painted around them.  I taped off the edges only.

Tom,

Is your roof gel-coat fiberglas ?

Did you prime it first ?

I painted my radias, where clear coat was peeling, by sanding with 320 grit wet paper, then primed

with Behr outdoor primer, then finish coated with Behr Gloss house paint.  It looks great.

My roof is fiberglass and no priming is required. Just scuff and use a wax and grease remover, then apply with a short nap roller. Reapply and let dry in direct sun for four hours.

No Tim that is not the Dicor product I used it is specifically designed for fiberglass roofs.
