TORCH ON FELT

[Joe1937]

I have a roll of torch on felt, gas and torch but I don't know how to start. I am not sure which side of the felt (inside or outside) is laid on the roof for torching or where to start torching.

I would be grateful for your help.

Thanks

ideally black side should be facing down as this is the bitumen, run the torch across the black side until it starts to melt, then roll it out a little keeping the torch runnig across the bitum as you roll it out,

Oh god! Here's a disaster just waiting to happen.
p.s you'll need a lighter too.
