Nice! I'll have to consider this method when I eventually get around to redoing my modern paved roads. They're a bit older and not as snazzy as these...

Very nice indeed. I wonder if I can get something similar in the UK.

Hmmmm, I don't think we have these type of shingles here in The Netherlands. A shame, because the results are fantastic!!

Just cross the border to Sauerkraut country, enter the next DIY-Store called "Baumarkt" there and ask for "Dachpappe" or "Bitumenschindeln". (I believe your county should have that kind of stuff too I guess, but here in Europe it rarely comes in shingles but usualy is rolled up in barrels).

I tried something silmilar with "Mauersperrband" (another bitouminous product also sold in German DIY stores) but that product is hard ro cut and stays sticky at the edges.

Cool - at least Germany has the product.  Shipping has to be better from Germany than from the US.
