Strip Caulking is a mastic, flexible putty tape. It is non-hardening and pliable.
Used under moldings, around windows, doors and vents, waterproofs overlapping metal seams.
Use this instead of Silicone Sealants as it remains pliable and makes vents etc removable.

I am preparing my caravan for the caulking tape what are the steps to applying?
- scrape, cut away old silicone mastic
- clean area with metho or Wax & Grease Remover
- Apply mastic and screw in fittings
- trim excess mastic away
- Brush edge with Wax & Grease Remover to create a seal or my preferred method is to "edge finish" with a very small bead of silicone
Also how long does it require to set/harden?
- Mastic doesn't set nor harden it is ready for immediate use.
How long should it last and is it easy to remove and replace later on?
- Mastic takes about 8-10 years to dry out and crack.
- It is pretty easy to scrape away, clean up and refit.
