Are you talking about a reflective foil ?

The second link was inneresting, an inneresting take on the shingle
issue.
I think there are quite a variety of spray-type foams used.


Ultimately, the issue is circulating air. Trapped air, otoh, is
supposedly
one of the best insulators, so theoretically, crumpled up newspaper
should
be pretty serviceable.


I think, tho, that an inch or two of circulating air, and THEN
insulation
is
proly the best marriage, roofing-wise.
Of course, if this is not already designed in, it's proly water
under the
bridge, BUT if a new roof were to be put on, an extra (gapped) layer of
plywood proly wouldn't be too hard to execute.


What in the world does "proly" mean? It's not English, another language
maybe?


Proly = Proberbly.


LOL. I'd ask what Proberbly means but I think I have it figured out.


*******ized spelling of words existed on The Net before texting appeared
and completely destroyed The English language. ^_^


Quite right Duf. Examples
Color
armor
plow


Naa, I'm referring to Norm Crosby, king of malapropisms, type stuff. ^_^
