Hi all,
Had a small problem with a leaking awning rail on our 2004 Coachman, full rail removed, cleaned, refitted with new stainless screws and Soudal Fix ALL, then sealed again along caravan body. Damp readings have gone right down over a few months to 11% in the effected area now and we'll chuffed with my repair.
Only thing that is unpleasant to my eye now is the tiny pin holes left from my over use of the damp meter, jabbing the prongs into the wall board. Any ideas as to how to conceal these tiny holes? With hind sight I could have been a little more careful on how many different areas I could have pushed the prongs in! They are tiny and hardly noticeable unless up close, but they still annoy me!

-------------
Love my caravan too much...

Could you maybe smear in a bit of silicon sealant of similar colour and wipe off excess?
