Would clear Plasti Dip be a good choice? There is a clear Plasti Dip on Amazon link, but some reviewers say it is more matte finish (clear, but dull or frosty)

Any comments from anybody will be welcomed.

Thank you,

It appears that Plasti Dip would be more expensive than I thought, according to the reviews for the single Plasti Dip can at the link above, one can, which costs about $20, covers about 1 square foot. The roof alone is about 15 square feet, so that would be over $300 if I were to use just cans. This would be too expensive for a temporary solution.

(The review for the single Plasti Dip can states: " Works well, coverage limited per can. This is good stuff, but the coverage you get from a can is small. You have to do a few coats, so 1 can ends up good for about 1 square foot.")

Any comments anybody has will be welcomed.

Thanks,

R.
