Does anyone have any ideas for what could pass for rolled roofing? Here are the criteria:
1) Easy to acquire, i.e., available at Home Depot, Lowe's, etc.
2) Long lasting without maintenance.
3) Has to be glued to an uneven surface such as a cast shingle roof, etc.
4) Reasonably prototypic appearance, i.e, not too coarse
I've got an old Pola warehouse (y'all know the one) that I'm refurbishing. The tile roof is obviously not going to work for a rural Pennsylvania wood shop. I don't want to have to remove the original roof, I just want to put something on top of what's there. I suppose I could glue sheet styrene onto the roof to give me an even surface to work with, but if I'm going to do that, I'll just glue Precision Products shingles on instead. (This is column fodder, hence my question. I've got lots of esoteric solutions, but "simple" is paramount.)
