rothers2901 Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 I have tried to search this with no joy. My question is, Can you snow foam the roof on a convertible? or will it have any discolouring effect? Quote
glrnet Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 if you use black snow foam it should be fine I have tried to search this with no joy. My question is, Can you snow foam the roof on a convertible? or will it have any discolouring effect? Quote
rothers2901 Posted July 11, 2012 Author Posted July 11, 2012 It'll be fine. Also, roofs. The accepted plural is "roofs". The plural of roof is roofs or rooves The Oxford English Dictionary lists "rooves" as an alternate, one of several outdated spellings used in the UK, and in New England as late as the 19th century Thanks for the advice all the same.

The plural of roof is roofs or rooves The Oxford English Dictionary lists "rooves" as an alternate, one of several outdated spellings used in the UK, and in New England as late as the 19th century Thanks for the advice all the same. So the accepted plural is roofs, but you still used rooves? Quote

In fact old enough to know that the real Napoleon was not just a cheap brandy bought in the duty free shop. Quote
spursmaddave Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Ok ok moof along now nothing to see here...... Quote
Neilp Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 EDIT sorry just reread and what you want is roofs as you're talking about roofs in general Rooves is like the word thus Quote
spursmaddave Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Where is builder49 when you need some roof clarification Quote
Neilp Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Had to do a quick edit, misread as im extremely tired Quote
ioneabee Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 Where is builder49 when you need some roof clarification well.....there are different types of roofs...erm rooves - there's cold roofs/rooves and warm roofs/rooves, now the cold roof/roove must have air ventilating under it, and the warm roof/roove doesn't require any ventilation at all ...... everyone following this..... I could continue Quote
Cragus Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 I thought the plural is for multiple. The way its used here is singular which is roofs' (apostrophe after the s) Oh Neily boy! The apostrophe indicates possession. E.g. The boys' football. (In this case more the ball belongs to more than one boy). The boy's football. (I this case the ball belongs to a single boy). As for the word roof. If you apply the grammatical rule that words which end in 'f' should have 'v' replace the 'f' then es added, rooves is the correct spelling. Children are still taught this rule but this word is an exception to the rule - cliff is another example. Other words like 'dwarf' can have either 'ves' or just 's' added - both are correct. Quote
rothers2901 Posted July 11, 2012 Author Posted July 11, 2012 Ok ok moof along now nothing to see here...... Roofs, Rooves, Hoofs, Hooves, Dwarfs and Dwarves they are all hotly contested issues normally without any real answer. Both are equally right depending on which generation you are from. Quote
ATTAK Z Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 ........there's cold roofs/rooves and warm roofs/rooves, now the cold roof/roove must have air ventilating under it, and the warm roof/roove doesn't require any ventilation at all ...... everyone following this..... I could continue Please do please don't .... cold roofs/rooves do not require ventilation providing you use a top notch vapour permeable membrane and (dependant of the type of tile), counter battens Quote
