hey guys
i took the plunge today & bought a couple rolls of grace -- hoping to apply part of it tomorrow.
grumpy mentioned a guy who always goes over grace completely with roofing felt, as opposed to just lapping 4" at the top. is this overkill -- and maybe worse -- because you'd be stapling the felt down thru the grace, adding a ton of extra small holes? i know the grace is supposed to seal up really well around penetrations, but i'd imagine the fewer to begin with, the better. is the extra layer of underlayment worth the staple holes?
also -- is a run of aluminum flashing down the valleys (planning on closed, woven valleys, btw), over the grace, worth the bother, or is it stupid? i think i've only got 16" wide max. aluminum right now, so it's probably not worth bothering with.
thanks!
