Products / ShingleStarter

ShingleStarter is a self-adhesive, mineral-surfaced 50 mil membrane in 7.2-inch by 33.5-foot rolls that replaces a cut-tab shingle starter course, with a sealing strip to prevent wind uplift at the roof edge, and is waterproof and self-sealing around nails and other penetrations. It may be adhered directly to the roof deck or to MFM's Wind & Water Seal self-adhering underlayments, installs at or above 40 F on slopes of 2 inches per foot or more, and may be left exposed for 30 days. The product page lists ASTM D1970, ICC-ES ESR-1737, LA County (LARC/LABC), State of California (CRC/CBC), Florida Building Code FL 11842.1, Miami-Dade County approval and Fortified Building Program listing. The data sheet gives a 5-year limited warranty.
