water leak at front window

My 1971 Overlander Land Yacht develops a tiny leak around the front window in a heavy rain. Could I run a small bead of clear caulking around the window frame to keep the water outdoors?

I haven't been able to get to my trailer to do this yet but I will before my next trip!

Or Acryl-R?

Other than clear caulking, you could use Acryl-R. It is silver in color, good for a small bead, easy to apply, and stays flexible for a very long time.
