Floor rot, window sealing, leak fixing... the fun of RVing
Yahoo Message Number: 111722
Hi all,
 So this started out as just sprucing up the interior (the original pink carpet was pretty shabby) - found a bit of rot in the floor by the battery box/lounge table when I was replacing the carpet in my 22FL yesterday. :(  Looks like I get to pull out the table and inside skin to find the extent of the damage... :( :( :(  Has anyone experienced this before in a Front Lounge (or any LD with the battery box mounted driver's side amidships)?

Here's a link to a terrible photo of it

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2083/4509805594_5a82dd7e81.jpg>  I've narrowed the potential leaks to the window or some skin pitting which has occured located directly under the battery compartment (probably from spilled acid over the years) where there are some actual pinholes in the skin.  Has anyone ever experienced that problem?  I figured some aluminum faced Eternabond and a shot of paint will work to seal that up short of a whole panel replacement.
 Also what is the recommended material for resealing windows on the LD? I saw Eternabond makes a window sealing tape which is intriguing, their other stuff is outstanding - but I was curious if any of you had any experience with this stuff.

Thanks!

Ken
