Default RE-roofing garage

I am wondering if it's ok to use those shingles now that I have to replace the garage roof. * Will the glue be ok?

Of course I'll have to buy more of them since they won't cover the whole area.


Glue is usually heat-activated, so unless they were in a very hot
environment they should be ok. Color is question that only you can
decide. You probably should get as close as possible, and then
interleave new and left-over shingles to minimize striping.
