Colour Coding

We are not able to colour code but we can have the roofs painted, but the roofs must be collected by the customer.

Roof Racks

On most models, roofs racks can be fitted to take up to 40kg including downforce of the wind (wind loading)

Advisory Points!

  1. It's always best to fit roof rack supports outside of the tent line as there can be no water ingress.
  2. Fitting points need to be at the strongest part of the roof, which is generally on the same line as the hinges and gas springs.
  3. Please be aware that whichever type of roof rack you use, the roof rack must not misshape the curvature of the roof.
  4. If a roof rack is fitted correctly, then there should be no problem. However, if it is not fitted properly then problems may occur sometimes and cannot be rectified. So please check what you are fitting is being done correctly.
  5. The roof is not designed to lift added weight so please remove before you open your roof.
  6. We are more than happy to give advice when needed but we will not take any responsibility for any damage that may occur through the fitting of the roof rack.

Sun Roof

On certain units provisions have been made with the mould to fit a sun roof please call and we can advise accordingly.
Please note whilst we will help all clients we cannot be responsible for all above accessories that may be fitted after purchase has been made.

Paint Recommendations

Before starting the preparation for the spraying of the roof, the roof MUST be pre cured at 40-50 degrees Celsius for about 3 hours to remove any residual moisture content.

THIS IS ESPECIALLY NECESSARY WITH DARK COLOURS.

Inspect the surface of the roof for pores or air pockets. If necessary puncture these places and fill them with polyester based filler.

Sand the gel coat surface with a rotary sander using 280-grit or finer abrasive paper. Then apply 2 pack high build primer to create an undercoat for the topcoat.

Once primer has cured, sand with the rotary sander using 500-grit or finer abrasive paper. The surface must be dry and free from dust, grease and silicone.

For the final topcoat use 2C-HS paint and for a more resistant surface apply 2C-HS-Clear coat.

Please note: At no time should the drying temperature exceed 40 degrees Celsius.

This process must be done with all roofs before spraying.
