Hello to all!

I have a flat asphalt roof about 25ft by 25ft. Needs one leak patched

Will roofing tars dissolve plastic tarpaulins and nylon window
screening used to reinforce such repairs? No hot tar, just what I see
at Lowe's and Home Depot in 5 gallon metal buckets. Perhaps this does
not come in a plastic bucket because the plastic bucket would dissolve
into the tar?

Could I use a 5ft x 5 ft piece cut from a plastic tarpaulin? My plan is
to first apply Black Jack=AE 6230 Fibered Plastic Roof Cement Wet or Dry
Surface http://tinyurl.com/ybfo2b

THEN TO: Slap that tarpaulin piece onto it, then trowel some more Black
Jack=AE 6230 on top of that http://tinyurl.com/ybfo2b

(Could I reinforce such applications with aluminum window screen
material?)

Any advice appreciated
