There is a reason that screws are used to install the molding on the trailer edges and corners. That molding may need to be removed to make repairs in other areas. There's a reason DICOR is used (instead of Eternabond). DICOR can be removed to facilitate access to the underlying structure. Eternabond can't be removed without a good likelihood of damaging the underlying structure. That means, if you ever need to remove the molding, if it ever gets loose and you need to tighten the screws, if the vinyl "screw cover strip" ever dries out and needs to be replaced, you can't remove the Eternabond without risking significant damage to any of those underlying structures.
DICOR is the appropriate product to seal that area. Don't try to make things better by actually making them "permanent".

If a screw were to pop up after eternabond, just cut an X over the screw head, fix it and apply an eternabond patch. Ray of (Love Your RV) did that.
