The manufacturers of EPDM rubber roof systems do not recommend that you use silicone or any other product that contains petroleum distillates as a sealant or cleaner. Both are potentially harmful to the rubber and silicone does not adhere well.

Later, if you have to re caulk or reseal the screws and fasteners on the solar panel, nothing will adhere to the silicone - even silicone - so in the end you will have to remove it when resealing.

Dicor rubber roof sealant is compatible with EPDM rubber roof and is a product that is widely used on the roof - both self-leveling and regular.
