Some has used what is now hard grey stuff to repair some previous
blemishes in the tiles. It is subsequently cracked.


You can get roof sealant cartridges which I think are bitumen based and
should retain some flexibility.

With a long crack, it might be worth applying a felt patch, bedded on
mastic from a tin (slightly cheaper than cartridges).

Aquapol with its reinforcing scrim? Wonderful stuff.
