Roofing Felt

[Jennykenny]

Bought a roll of roofing felt and lost the instructions.
Does the dull matt darker side go face down on the shed roof or the slightly lighter silvery-grey side go down?
Thanks

Over time, bitumen gradually hardens and becomes brittle, rather like plastic does if/when exposed to the sun. To reduce exposure of the bitumen to sunlight a layer of grit is often applied to the surface, a bit like providing shade. A layer of pigmented coating is similarly used. This is the side that should face up.

It may have been better to get a roll of green mineral felt jenny.

I am infuriated that I can't read the first answer because there is an ad in front of it.
How can I stop this?

[Jennykenny]

An ad for M&S not some rubbish company!!

The gritty side up.

The matt side down, the rougher side goes up.
Ad bloc will solve your problem but I think it is a dirty word on here.

JK:
If you're seeing ads where you shouldn't, the Ed will want to know about it (so that the techies can see why it's happening).

Either use the 'Contact Us' link at the foot of this page or send an email to [email protected], letting him know which device you're using (e.g. Windows computer, Android tablet, iPhone, etc), which browser you're using (e.g. Edge, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, etc) and, if relevant, whether you're viewing the 'full' version of AB or the 'mobile' version. Also provide a link to this thread.

Alternatively, just use that-which-shall-not-be-named-here to get rid of all the ads anyway ;-)

Thanks to all.
And Buenchico, will follow that up. (Not happening now!)
