PRECAUTIONARY NOTES 1. These shingles are fiberglass, self-sealing asphalt shingles. Because of the natural characteristics of the high-quality waterproofing material used, these shingles will be stiff in cold weather and flexible in hot weather. 2. These shingles are particularly tough and may require additional effort to trim to fit on the roof. Curved blade utility knives are more effective than straight blade utility knives in cutting these shingles.
