Flashing cement is another name for which product?
Correct Answer:
Asphalt roofing cement.
Explanation:
Flashing cement is the thick, asphalt-based sealant used to waterproof around roof flashings such as chimneys, vent pipes, and where flashing meets shingles. It stays pliable and seals gaps to prevent water intrusion at penetrations and joints, which is exactly what you need for flashing work. That’s why the correct term is asphalt roofing cement. It isn’t gutter sealant (used on gutters), mineral stabilizers (used elsewhere in roofing materials), or the adhesive used to bind shingles themselves. In use, you apply it around the flashing to create a durable, watertight seal.
