Is Henry Tropicool 887 the Ultimate Permanent RV Roof Solution?

Dealing with RV roof maintenance is easily one of the most frustrating parts of owning a rig. Traditional sealants crack, seams separate, and a full roof replacement can easily cost thousands of dollars. That is why I wanted to test a permanent, long-term solution on the channel: Henry’s Tropicool 887 White 100% Silicone Reflective Roof Coating.

In the video above, I take you onto the roof for a complete, step-by-step walkthrough of the entire application process.

Why Choose a 100% Silicone Coating?

Unlike standard acrylic coatings that degrade under intense sunlight and standing water, 100% silicone forms a seamless, completely waterproof barrier. It expands and contracts with your RV as you travel, meaning it won't crack or peel under extreme weather conditions. Plus, the bright white finish reflects UV rays, which dramatically drops your interior trailer temperatures during hot summer days.

The Secret is in the Prep Work

As you will see in the drone footage, putting down a "forever roof" requires flawless preparation. If you don't scrub the old membrane clean and seal the critical seam edges first, the coating won't adhere properly.
