Hi, I'm switching out all the white plastic service components on my gray sided T@b 400 with black components. The caulk on there now is a medium gray color. Nucamp told me what kind it is, but I found out it's only sold to RV manufacturers, so now I'm searching for a different sealant. I prefer gray if I can find it. Any suggestions on brands?

    It may be the wrong stuff, but I use a light gray DAP Dynaflex Ultra.  Says it resists UV fading and cracking, will stay flexible for 1000 years.  But it is a lighter gray.

    The best ? - Sikaflex 221 , aluminum grey . Think the Sika part number is 017-90892 . It is adhesive sealant , so it will seal very well, and also act as an adhesive . This stuff will stick stuff so well, you wont need the screws ,lol . 

    As an alternative , you can just go into the local auto parts store and get some "Ultra Grey" Permatex RTV sealant . Great sealant, and not as "permanant" as the Sikaflex (prob a good thing!) . 

    HTH , good luck !

    I had painted the fridge vent gloss black when I did the GeoMars fridge drawer mod, just to protect the plastic from the sun, and was struck with how much better it looks, even with silver colored trim T@Bs.  And the spray paint adheres very well to that surface.

    I actually found all the parts in black for surprisingly reasonable prices. Well, I couldnt find the black metal a/c vent cover but I expect it will paint nicely.
