I strongly question the long-term efficacy of this practice. But the customer is always right... so we do it despite our protests. I would refuse for a one-off job. I only do it because we have a contract for hundreds of homes and my bargaining position is not good.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">How much rail is really exposed anyway?

<p>A customer has asked that I look into painting the exposed parts
of the anodized rails on their roof mounted system to more closely
match the shingles. (New construction, we did not know what the
shingle color was going to be, and I have to say, I did not ask).
Has anyone any experience with this? Thank you for any help.
