Looking for small amount of "pitch pad"

[Edgar_in_Indy]

Does anybody know where I could get a small amount of pitch pad? I'm going to be installing a dish mount on the overhang of my house, and so far I've only been able to find pitch pad in bulk. Thanks!

....pitch pad....

Why not use the asphalt based roof patching compound from Lowe's or Home Depot. They have it in smaller cans and caulk gun tubes.

The putty like "duct seal" works like dough and can be had for $2 for a one pound block at either Lowes or Home Depot in the electrical department. It's made ofr the same stuff as pitch pads, but has less solvent and is less sticky. It also is less likely to stick to the shingles, and when removed, it will not likely tear the shingles.

Sounds good, thanks for the tip!
