Re: Drip Rail Paint Cracking after 10 years a Restoration?
Looks minor compared to what I have seen! You could buy several more years by cleaning the cracked areas with a stiff wire brush, applying some POR-15 over any rust using a very small arts & crafts brush, and then laying down some good quality seam sealer. I like SEM single stage, but a 2K sealer might work even better.

You might not even have to repaint the roof if you use the white sealer. Or is your roof a metallic white?
