How to fill gap in floor....
My wife and I just returned from a short trip in our "new to us" 2004 Itasca Sunrise and my wife was very displeased (aka "pissed"!!) to notice a significant amount of dust and dirt in the six drawers at the bottom of the wardrobe along the back wall. The upper wardrobe didn't seem to be affected at all. I couldn't see anything out of the ordinary from the inside so I crawled underneath and noticed a symmetrical 1/4" to 1/2" gap running the entire length of the back wall and what I presume to be the coach's subfloor, which I believe is the source of the dust and road grime entering the coach. It looked like there were remnants of some sort of foam filler material which I'm sure was installed from the factory when the coach was built but nearly all of it seems to have deteriorated and most of it is now missing. The back wall and subfloor appear to be structurally sound with no evidence of water intrusion, delamination, etc. Is there any special product I should use to seal this gap or should I simply use some type of silicone caulk?
