If you had access to an airless type sprayer it would work. They are designed to spray thicker material. Great job Brock!!

I used a similar product on my last house. It did exactly as you speculated. It put off replacing the entire roof for 2 years or so.

As you know, the wind and hail in SE Kansas is really hard on roofs. I've seen whole neighborhoods here have most roofs replaced after a big storm. Many of them are claims against homeowners insurance. When it's time to replace yours, I encourage you to look into shingle specifically designed for our harsh weather. When we placed those heavy duty shingles on our home it actually lowered our homeowners insurance premiums.

I'd like to read/see a follow-up regarding how well this product worked so far. Thanks!

I have never seen that product before. Thanks for giving us your input!

The concept of this product makes perfect sense to me. I would say it has to help.

A little comedic insert to an old Stanley Brothers song (How Far to Little Rock): Q: Why don't you fix your roof? A: 'Cause when it's raining I can't, and when the sun's out it don't leak!

Good job man. It’s the sun that’s the hardest on the bitumen/ granule, followed by rain.

Good morning Brock. Sorry I haven't been around much this weekend so I'm a day late again watching your video. Years ago when my Wife and I were first starting out we owned a mobile home and I used a Henry's product to seal the roof. It came in 5 gal. buckets and you applied it with a brush like the ones that you would apply foundation coating. It worked very well so maybe that brush might work better. As far as replacing your roof, I would never use shingles again. A metal roof is the best way to go. Around our area in the mountains of North Central Pennsylvania the price is comparable to shingles and it has a lifetime warranty. Just thought I'd stick my 2 cents in. God bless and have a wonderful day. Now I'm going to watch todays video. 👍👍🙂

My guess would be that the product could be thinned for better coverage and spray-ability. Usually water is a compatible thinner for acrylic paint blends/emulsions. For sample thinning don't add much water, a small amount of water might cause viscosity to drop quickly (it's the nature of emulsions).

paint it white better for electric bills and better to hold shingles together

Seems to be a band aid. It may stop the bleeding temporarily, but if the problem is to deep it will just break back open down the road and cost more to fix then just doing it properly and replacing the problem area on the roof. Just my two cents, but I hope it works out.

Real man

i think u should have tarred under any shingles that you could lift up first before coating it with Henry’s shingle sealer

I seen an area that lifted when you were using the blower did you tar that section down? The coating will add some life to the granules but not solve your biggest issue of lifting singles.

You need a poor boy sprayer, we use them for all sorts of stuff, even painting. Available at any parts store, dirt cheap, a siphon spray blow gun kit. Will spray cleaning fluids, soap and water, paint, anything liquid. If it puts out too much you can put a brass fitting in the bottom of the suction tube with a small diameter hole.

I wonder if an airless paint sprayer, like for latex house paint, wouldn't work well for that product? 🤔

If you get that much wind damage you might want to go with a metal roof

How’s the roof doing after 8 months? Thanks

I called Henry and they said you need to buy a decent sprayer and not a cheap one.

Bro, that grey area at the top of the shingle is how it’s supposed to look

You need a paint sprayer. A garden sprayer is meant for very thin liquids.

Do you like the results?

Did it work?

A paint sprayer might work to apply with

I think it's worth it. Now it is June 27 2024. how is it holding up?

@4:28 "you can't get it out of a bottle" but you can get it out of a 55 gallon oil drum full of roofing tar😂

Nail placement & seems need to be in proper places or itll leak iver time.

Well do you know how old your roof is?? Its hard to tell but I don't think the Shingles were installed correctly or its quality issue. I don't think this product will extend the roof life the way you want. The seal strips underneath are failing. Maybe Sno Coat will do better it adds more weight and thicker. The best time replace a roof is before they start leaking. Start planning now replace ASAP Dont wait 5 years you will be out more money.

Not suppose to use a a frame ladder that way.. gonna get cha self hurt.. use an extension..

@4:55 I think I speak for all women when requesting that you wear shorter shorts. Please and thank you

Don’t do this!
