roof screw holes (1 Viewer)

[wp1234]

Hello all,
The previous owner of my MH removed a rooftop satellite dish leaving six screw holes.
The holes have been filled with what looks like some sort of grey coloured non setting mastic , no idea what it is .I’m not really happy with that so am thinking of Sikaflex as a better fix.
Is there a recommended way of sealing the six holes or is just pumping in Sikaflex the answer?
Thanks in advance

I would coat six screws in sikaflex and fit them into the hole thus filling hole and sealing:thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb:Cheers, Rob

As it is on the roof and a part of the van you don't look at every day I would make a covering plate up out of thin aluminiumi spray it white and stick it over the screw holes with silkaflex, making sure you put a bead around the outer edges. You can buy small aluminium sheets from the larger B&Q stores.:thumb:

I agree with Dane, best make up a covering plate and silicone in place for total peace of mind. However, if you visit a plastics wholesaler like GAP, you can purchase white plastic door skin, cut to size, then you don't have to worry about painting. I also used it for making up wind shields for the fridge vents, drilled several holes so the fridge could vent but at the same time cutting down the drafts.
