FELTBUSTER
™
HIGH-TRACTION SYNTHETIC ROOFING FELT
Description:
Quality roofing underlayment is critical for helping
to prevent wind-driven rain from infiltrating under
the roof’s shingles and potentially damaging
the home’s structure and interior. Traditional
asphalt felt underlayments tear easily and absorb
moisture, leading to wrinkling that telegraphs
through the shingles. Competitively priced
with typical #15 and #30 asphalt felts, GAF’s
FeltBuster
™
High-Traction Synthetic Roofing Felt
is virtually untearable and will not absorb
moisture, helping to prevent wrinkling.
Its specially designed surface combines
enhanced walkability with a cooler working
surface (vs. typical black asphalt felts).
Use:
