Not sure what a heart to heart with my daughter will do as she does not know history of roof. She bought this home for $5000 3 years ago and knew she would have things to fix as it is 25 years old. With no house note she has a lot of room to work around upkeep expenses. Still think she made a good deal for a starter house since the inside looks very well taken care of.
I know little to nothing about metal roofs on mobile homes but from what I have heard that paint on stuff is just to fill seam line leaks. Do not know if this coating was added by previous owner to fix leaks are if it was factory installed. Lets assume the P/O had the roof coated. Well it has made its life time and is coming up. Some pictures of the roof.
My hope was to get up there and remove any loose pieces and then treat it like a flat roof. Just trying to explore all options before I commit to hot tar and tar paper layers. I saw this peel and stick stuff for flat roofs on the internet. It seems similar to the ice and water guard I have under my shingles on my house but made to go as a top coat with no shingles over it so I figured I would ask about it.
If it turns out to be not what I expected it to be from comments others make here I am going to get painted steel panels and just put a whole new roof on the trailer. The more I figure up the cost the steel sounds better and better.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
