Default Nail placement in 3 tab seal tab shingles?



nail above tar strip and over each notch.


NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!


storm nailing is two nails over each slot (1 left of notch, 1right of
notch).
and one nail at each end.

the tar strip is for sealing the shingles NOT the nails.

TIP
make sure nails go thru shingle below.


IF nailed as you say, they will not do that. That is why you nail BELOW
the tar strip


if nailed above shingle below, the front of the shingle will lift. and
not seal properly.
do NOT remove plastic strip from shingles.
