Best solution for adding custom gutters

This is my second order of this product. The first order went through a whole row of louvered windows and lasted almost a year without a stir, in full sun and warm, freezing winter temperatures. I just installed another downspout on my fifth corrugated aluminum above a set of large side windows and am doing the other side today. The back of the tape is VERY sticky after installation so get it right the first time or gently press every few inches to check otherwise you may leave some black tape on your RV. Someone asked if it could be bent a few inches around the windows - yes you can - and over thick corrugated aluminium! Lay it out in the sun, soften it up nicely, or have a heat gun ready and gently heat the end you want to curve, and heat the metal wall of the pendant as well. It will fit like butter. Peel off the tape a few inches at a time, press down, then rub with a smooth, rounded-ended tool, brush, wrench, or something smooth, and slowly work over it. If you want to get creative, take a small spirit level to the top and make sure you place it so the water drains well, or make a ridge in the middle so water drains easily to both ends of the gutter . for do-it-yourself gutters and especially if you live in an area that gets heavy rains. You can never go wrong by adding more gutters over the main windows, doors, etc. I have read all the reviews on here and I don't understand how people can complain. Yes, it comes rolled in a box, but it unfolds beautifully in the heat or in the sun. Just stretch it out on your lawn until it's nice and pliable. As for people complaining about it not sticking and falling off - it's very hard for me to see how that happens as once you press it firmly into place it's a snug fit. Maybe smooth fiberglass coated in some kind of wax, but I doubt the tape will keep it from sticking. If I can get it to hold 90-180 degree turns in a few spots, I suspect anyone can. Clean your rig with rubbing alcohol/water halfway down where you want the gutter, after that I go over it with my heat gun, start laying it out just a few inches, slowly peel off the tape and press firmly with mine fingers or a round of end tools, done. He doesn't move! Great product for the price!
