I'd say scrap that junk and get some real steel roofing that won't squirm on you and install it with screws. Goes up fast and straight and won't come off like with roofing nails.

Mueller, or any steel supply should have sheet roofing, painted or galvanized for around $60-$70 per square. I just bought 14'x3' white sheets for $65 from Wylie Steel. Put it up on 4' spaced steel purlins (10'span) and could (did) walk on it. This is something you can't do with the junk and reduces your building material costs and time and effort to assemble. Mueller used to sell it for $55 per square before steel went up. Don't know their price now.

Also, by following my advice, you are guaranteed to NOT HAVE A SMASHED THUMB. Grin.

Now, by following my advice also, while at the steel store, get some trim, color of your choice, to cover up the things you want covered; edges, window areas, and all.
