Re: how to reseal the gutter
You'll need to do a bit of digging get out the old sealant if it's perished then re seal with a product called tiger seal
You can say alot of of things with "ar"

Re: how to reseal the gutter
Make sure you get a good seal, because if its leaking into the van its more than your seal leaking, I can tell you from experience that if water is finding its way into your van when its stationary then either corrosion causing holes in the gutter/remaining roof sections is the cause of the leak, by the time you notice water inside the van and suspect the roof seal its probably been like that for years festering under the roof gutter interface, only when water enters the van do you realise. Hope the reseal works I used white silka flex to reseal my roof after extensive rebuild.
