Abstract

A shingle or other roof covering is provided, comprising a tab portion and a butt portion. The shingle surface is provided with a band zone, in which adhesive zones are applied. The band zones run the entire width of a shingle, and are preferably located either on the underside surface of the tab portions, or on the top surface of butt portions The adhesive pattern is so that shingle lifting due to wind is resisted, but so that moisture can escape between overlapped shingles when the adhesive secures them together.
