I need to reseal the two main roof seams on my motorhome which run across the roof Is there a suitable flexible mastic tape I could use needs to be at least 1"(25mm) wide and where can I buy it online?
My efforts with a mastic gun are not pretty but will use if I have to

Why not try this stuff i have been told it works magic, you can either brush or spray it.  www.plastidip.co.uk far better than any sealant you can buy.

i painted all my roof with plastidip ? what a waste of £50 .00 i found it crap water still got under it and just peeled of was rubbish, but dont let me put you of maybe i should have preped it with somthing or used an undercoat i dont know, but my results werent good, i ended up sealing all joints with fc 40 and then painted full roof again with smooth hammerite to protect it , results well happy...

I used this on my last van,took the rails off,cleaned them, and reapplied this sealant;and put all new screws in.

Think this year is to follow old meet friends for 2014.
If you cant do someone a good turn,don`t do them a bad one,its nice to be nice you know,and little things mean much more later in life.

If you go with sealant seam seal cv is ok as Peter says and it's cheap. Sikaflex 512 is better though.

Mastic in roll form is made by W4 and comes in 25 and 40 mm widths and is the only one worth considering

Good luck
