I've read of a technique for making tar paper roofs using tissue paper soaked with black paint, which sounded way too tedious. So I found an alternative, which is really fast, easy, and IMHO looks great: masking tape. Use a narrow roll (the one inch kind) and lay down parallel strips on the roof, slightly overlapping. Spray paint it and you're done! Doesn't get much easier than that!
