  150 pounds spread evenly over the roof would have no effect we could ever tell in its handling. On top of that everything I’ve read on the product is positive.  Well except for it’s kinda pricey. But what isn’t?

I "Get Your Point" Lance.  :)
I didn't mean to imply the roof coating was a bad idea.  As always EHIT in the RV industry, and in the case of 150 pounds worth of roof coating, the gains far outweighs the loss.

(EHIT = Everything Has It's Tradeoffs)

I believe in preventive maintenance as well, rather then fixing after a leak is found and damage has occurred.  If I was able to  afford the FlexArmor Roof Coating, I probably would have done it, especially with a lifetime warranty.  Unfortunately I had just spent $5,000.00 to have the front cap repainted and just started to notice some fibers showing on the roof.  After doing some research I found the Dicor product for Fiberglass RV roofs and a place that could professionally put it on at a price I could afford.  It looks good, but time will tell.  It most likely is not as high quality as the Flexarmor Roof Coating, but so far has done the job.  I have also upgraded to a covered storage unit at a greater expense, but well worth it.  My Phoenix Cruiser is a 2009 and I have owned it since 2018.  Not only have I had the roof re-coated,  but I personally get on the roof and check seals often and add sealant as necessary.  I am proud to be an owner of a Phoenix Cruiser and as my wife will agree, I probably spend too much time working on it to make improvements here and there, as I do believe in being proactive rather than reactive.

TD,  the product you used is no slouch. I’ve read a lot of great reviews on it and it’s not cheap by any means. A lot of great reviews by boaters who’s rigs are in the intense sun year round. In hind sight if a person owns the longer PC units with multiple slides your option is the better one. Some of the bigger rigs with 2-3 slides have very little room for any extra weight.
