Following these instructions will assist you or your roofer in installing the shingles correctly.
Safety first: working on steep slopes can be dangerous, so be sure to always use a safety rope and harness where needed.

 

Remember : Shingles should seal to the underlying course when the factory applied asphalt sealant is sufficiently warmed by the heat of direct sunlight. When application conditions might limit the effectiveness of the adhesive strip, such as cool weather or in areas subject to high winds or blowing dust, shingle adherence should be ensured through manual sealing by Shingle Stick or Plastal Stick.

 

These pictures are a few examples of what can go wrong when you don’t follow the recommended application method.
