[QUOTE="FoxPro5, post: 3629113, member: 562649"] So the OP asks if it will be effective. The answer is yes, it will....but it depends..... Switch the question to this: Is asphalt-based flashing tape a good investment...both for your money and time? Not really, because.... It requires something to clean it first. That's time and $$$. Requires heat. Got a heat gun? It's not a predictable product. It can vary greatly from manufacturer to manufacturer, batch to batch. It's not meant to be a decoupler; it's meant to do patch work on your roof! These arguments always come down to anecdotes: I used it and it fell off. I used it and it worked great. Back and forth. What's the underlying message? Find out for yourself. You could get some good stuff and it could work great. Could also be a big time mess, not worthy of your time or effort in the first place. Lowe's has a pretty liberal return policy. Maybe when it falls off you can roll it back up and return it?? Again, I have Protecto-Wrap products in my car...both the aluminum-backed and the mylar-backed versions. But they are not used as DEADENER! They are used as peal n seal.
