Sealing leaky roof
Has anyone ever used that black driveway coating to coat a roof with small leaks.....until a permanent roof can be installed...?

Nope. If I used anything, I would use roofing cement but that's only if I had something really small.
Just what do you have going on?

It's a bumpout on a larger building, approximately 10 ft X 20 ft. Has already 2 layers of asphalt, 3-tab, WELL WORN shingles. I've been recently thrust into the job of caregiver, so cannot get to the property to do the roof. Thought that driveway coating would hold it until I could get to it....and wouldn't be as big a hindrance to shingle removal as tar.
Thanx for all the input guys.

I seriously doubt a driveway sealer will be adequate. Mainly because with any pitch, it will run in the summer heat and drip off the edge ruining everything below it.

Thanx for the reply chandler. The sealer seems to dry pretty quickly on the driveway....the hotter, the quicker......???? Anyway, I guess there's no getting around the job I must do.....correctly.
