I just ordered 25' of off white gutter to divert some water from around the front of my coach...

Has anyone used this product before?

The concept is really good and I'm sure that it works as advertised. But anything as ugly as Hogans Goat had better work really really well. I have never seen an installation that actually looks presentable.
And I'm really not that picky.....I'm the guy with a $35 orange ladder hanging off my rear ladder.

I've seen it used on MHs that had leaking window seals. The idea was to keep as little water as possible from running down the side of the coach and into the window seal. I have no idea how well it works.
Please let us know how well it works for you.

Yep, I have used this several times. I put a long piece over the top of the entire windshield. This keeps the streaks from running down and making it dirty. On my previous coach I did this as well as putting in on several windows, (side and back). It works very well. Sometimes it doesn't stick on the end, so I used some super-duper double-sided tape stuff to stick it down, (just on one end). It needs to be soft and pliable when going around windows, (to the sides). If you can leave it out in the sun for a while to get warm, that will help. I put my roll in the oven for 15 minutes with it just warmed a little. (less than 150 degrees) Don't forget to clean the area with alcohol. I haven't had the need to do it to other windows on this rig.

I have the ez gutter over the front windshield and it works fine and since the window rubber moulding is black, I oppted for the black gutter. The black blends in much better then the white in my opinion. The gutter keeps the black streaks off the windshield. Clean the application area with alchole twice before sticking the gutter on. I ran aross the top of the windshield and about 12 inches down each side

X2! Works great as long as the "bend" isn't so sharp as to cause the gutter material to resist and come loose...IMHO, of course
PS went with white to match coach....
