Antique shingle project south of Annapolis

 South of Annapolis, MD, these vintage shingles were coated with light grey Wearcoat 66. 

Originally we preserved the roof in 2008, but unfortunately the
primer was unable to contain the rust.  Of course, the light grey acrylic
did not contain the surfacing rust since the material is water-based.

Some projects do come back and bite you.

The couple were quite courteous about the whole matter, for which I was appreciative. 

Selection of modern materials, both in color, elasticity and rust control, is important to the long term success of any project.
