[quote]As for recoating every 15 years, or whatever, why is that any different than maintaining a good asphalt roof?

The most amazing foam roofs I have ever seen are the ones with no coating. Just gravel. Even here in Ohio were they spend at least 6 months of the year wet, the foam is dry, flat, excellent.

Even though I've seen it myself, I could not see me selling>>>

And before we get too far off topic, this thread was never about trashing SPF. That much should be obvious given that I've hired SPF sprayed for myself twice. I think SPF is an amazing product when used where it works best. I think Spenda is an amazing p>>>

Tom,

I have a special need/request. Can SPUF be acceptably installed over asphalt shingles (about 3/12 slope) and if so, do you have a reference standard I can refer too? Also, where can I find acceptable substrates verses unacceptable (if it exists)? I>>>

No, honest people don't recoat a roof every 10-15 years then say the roof has lasted 40 years. I'll show you roofs that we installed 25+ years ago that have never been t>>>
