The part that covers the a c may be part fiberglass. Some call it a shroud(?) mine is a little "peely/shredded" so I flex plastic coat painted it to seal it, then roof paint. I lightly sanded the cover first.<br />

We scraped, with paint scraper anything on roof loose. Swept well. Then caulked all seams, around a c and roof vents. At that point interior stayed dry, lots rain here. Then I put the Henry's aluminum roof paint on last. Paint is thick, you almost spread it with a roofing tool on stck. If…

We have the new seal for the air conditioner. But can you tell if this is a fiberglass roof? If you can see in the picture by the air shroud, whatever it's been painted with is peeling off. Does it need to be cleaned off and repainted? Or is this the correct method for this type of roof?

I used Henry's roof aluminum paint on my 1959 trailer. First we scraped all loose old stuff off. Next we caulked all seams using roof caulking in gray. Let that dry a day or two. Then "painted" roof. He is dry now!!! I say painted in quotation marks because you really spread it more than paint. If use brush only spread in one direction. If not sure or comfortable being on roof use a piece of plywood two to three feet wide and lay on that. I bought supplies at Home Depot. Cheaper than rv store.
