26 Gauge Roofing Flashing Roll Burgundy 16 in x 10 ft - Durable Finish

In this review the reviewer looks at the Burgundy 26 gauge flashing roll and finds it a practical choice for roofers, contractors and DIYers who need a flexible, painted steel flashing that resists cracking and looks finished. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a 26 gauge steel core with a 40 year Valspar baked-on paint finish and a removable protective film, which together deliver a ready-to-install piece that cuts easily on site and keeps its appearance over time.

Key Features

• Material and Gauge: 26 gauge steel provides a balance of rigidity and formability so flashing holds shape yet can be folded for detailed trim work.
• Paint Finish: 40 year Valspar baked-on paint helps protect the metal from weather exposure and preserves the burgundy color for years.
• Protective Film: A removable film on the painted side prevents scratches during handling and transport so finished edges arrive clean.
• Workability: The rolls cut with standard sheet metal snips and can be bent without cracking, making on-site adjustments straightforward.
• Length and Width Options: Each roll is 10 ft long and can be ordered in widths from 2 in to 36 in, with custom cuts available on request.

Who It's For

The Burgundy flashing roll suits roofing contractors and experienced DIYers working on trim, gutter repair, step flashing and visual roof edges where a painted finish is desired. Its painted surface and removable film make it useful when appearance matters as well as durability.

It is less appropriate for projects that require thicker structural metal or specialized corrosion resistance beyond painted steel; for marine or constantly wet environments a different material such as stainless grade metals should be considered.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Durable painted surface with a 40 year Valspar finish that keeps color and resists weathering.
• Easy to cut and bend with standard hand snips without paint cracking, enabling quick on-site modifications.
• Removable protective film reduces the risk of surface damage during handling and installation.

Cons

• As a 26 gauge painted steel product, it is not as corrosion resistant as stainless steel for harsh or marine environments.

Specifications
