Oh, and Joe Hagarty.... "manufacturer's recomendations" is not the correct answer.

Would that be clay tile roofing.
Due to the surface of a fired clay a glazed surface exists and has a low friction co-efficient. Dirt would probably assist with slide factor.. I would not walk this roof even when dry not for just damage reasons but "sliding reasons".. |

Wood shake or shingle roofs I have found to be very slippery when performing work in the wet months.. But I guess all roof types are found to be slippery when wet..
But a "slippery when dry" roof is hard to come buy.. LOL |

I'll give you a hint... there is a class action settlement regarding this roofing material.

The suspense is killing me,...I can't think of anything as slippery as a sheet metal roof. They use them alot in the mountains and areas with heavy snow loads as it just slides right off.?????
