Just resealed two windows with the 3/16 X 1". Hardly had any trimming to do and what was there came right off with a putty trimming knife. The old seals were rubber type gaskets. I could see where the leaking was from. Top corners like the seals where pulled too tight on the corners. If dirt could get in then water could also get in.

Doing the first window gave you the experience. Doing the second made you a pro.
Now it's on to the next RV project!
