[A/S] B-van roof
I have a 1992 B190 B-van. According to the factory, this is one year
they painted the roofs. The surface of the roof is dull and has
almost a cloth like appearance. The roof has developed cracks that I
am concerned with. I am considering white-topping the roof as the
factory does with trailers to seal the cracks and to cool the
interior. My concern is what to coat it with.
This is the second problem I've had with the fiberglass roof. The
first was what looked like the gell coat cracking then peeling off.
It looked like something that had been repainted numerous times and
all the layers of paint had cracked through and were peeling. When
I ground through the spider web cracks, I discovered under each line
of cracks there was a string of air bubbles.
Any help on material for coating the roof will be appreciated.
