Thanks to everyone for the great advice for repairing our damaged1997 sunnybrooke. A workman with a 2x6 in the truck bed backed the truck too close to the camper and the lumber went all the way through the front, damaging the siding and the interior. Of course insurance totalled it out. Said it was too old to fix. I hate to brag,but our repair looks great. Now we are finishing up the most important part.making sure it is well sealed. We used proFlex on the seams as we replaced the aluminum. Plan to recaulk those seams. On the corners, we applied the thin woods strips, lots of rv putty strips under the outside corner trim and edged the excess. Should we also apply proflex down this corner seam to seal the putty? If so do we need to let the putty dry (does it ever dry?) dont want to mess up now. Thanks again. Penny
