Default leak

we have a 2808 C and was completely restored 2021 and new roof but a leak appeared and was fixed . I noticed on the one side looks like plywood separation.
There is a product called flexArmore and is sprayed on. Has anybody had any experience with this.
Also I had a leak at the one window and did not see anywhere it could have come in so I silicon around the window till I can get it to a shop to seal all windows and noticed the plastic molding at the top ( see picture) was loose and in the center buckled. I caulked everything.
rained hard next day and no leaks.
Is there anywhere to get a molding like that or is it not even necessary to be there.

Hi,
Yes, that molding is necessary. It is a water deflector. These windows are not waterproof in driving rain, even if you torque the windows closed hard. This rubber shrinks due to to drying out. I do not know where to get that molding. You might try constant application of rubber restorer. Also, I've read on this forum that you need to re-putty the windows over time since this putty dries out.
Good Luck!
Kind Regards,
Pierre Levasseur
