Got an addon to the barn that leaked like a sieve this week with the rain we got. It has always had a few drips but this time I had 10 buckets around my work bench area and another 6 spread around. It is running down mainly 2 seams of corrugated tin and then dripping in at each 2x4 runner across the roof. Last year I went up with some clear silicone roofing caulk and caulked the seams and some of the screws.
The part that is added on is 32' wide with a 24' long roofing run. There is a 6' rise over the the 24' so is a 4:1 slope. Has two skylight panels in it. The screws are screwed into the high portions of the corrugations. Mostly no rust except a little below the 2 skylight panels.
Wondering what is the best coating to put on it but don't want to coat the whole barn or put any black stuff on it. The barn roof is fairly steep and in good condition so don't want to get into too much of a color mismatch. I've used the mobile home stuff before on flat roofs. I don't have anything that will spray thick stuff and if I brush the stuff on then I wonder if it will tend to fill in the corrugations. I'd like to buy an airless sprayer some day, just need a good reason to get one.
What do you guys recommend? None of that stuff is very cheap. Got more rain on the way and will probably hang a tarp underneath and direct the drips away from the bench.

Today's Featured Article - What Oil Should I Use? - by Francis Robinson. I keep seein this question pop up over and over again in discussion groups all over the web. As with many things there are often several right answers and a few wrong ones. Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ? Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
