The supplier of my torch down material sold 4' sections of 45 angle material that seemed to be made out of something like old newspapers compressed. It worked well. The installation instructions required the material, then the fiberglass paper underlayment on top of it, then the 12" torch down material in the transition zone, then the final roof. Been holding up well for 19 years so far.
