Coated roofing materials

A stack of coated shingles comprising:

• at least a first coated shingle and a second coated shingle, each coated shingle comprising:
• a substrate comprising a first surface defining an upper side of the shingle and an opposed a second surface defining a lower side of the shingle, wherein the substrate includes a headlap portion, a tab portion, and a nail zone situated between the headlap portion and the tab portion;
• asphalt impregnated within the substrate, such that a first asphalt coating is present on the first surface of the substrate and a second asphalt coating is present on the second surface of the substrate;
• an adhesive on the lower side of the shingle;
• a plurality of granules embedded in the first asphalt coating, forming a top face that includes the granules and a partially exposed first asphalt coating;
• and
• 0.0005 kg/m2 to 1 kg/m2 of at least one anti-stick coating located on the first surface of the shingle on at least one of the headlap portion and the tab portion,
• wherein the first coated shingle and the second coated shingle are oriented in a stack such that the upper side of the first coated shingle is in contact with the upper side of the second coated shingle.

A method for stacking coated shingles comprising:

• (i) providing a plurality of coated shingles, wherein each of the coated shingles comprise:
• a substrate comprising a first surface defining an upper side of the shingle and an opposed a second surface defining a lower side of the shingle, wherein the substrate includes a headlap portion, a tab portion, and a nail zone situated between the headlap portion and the tab portion;
• asphalt impregnated within the substrate, such that a first asphalt coating is present on the first surface of the substrate and a second asphalt coating is present on the second surface of the substrate;
• an adhesive on the lower side of the shingle;
• a plurality of granules embedded in the first asphalt coating, forming a top face that includes the granules and a partially exposed first asphalt coating;
• and
• 0.0005 kg/m2 to 1 kg/m2 of at least one anti-stick coating located on the first surface of the shingle on at least one of the headlap portion and the tab portion;
• and
• at least one release section on the lower side of the shingle;
• and
• (ii) stacking the plurality of coated shingles such that the upper side of a first coated shingle in the plurality of coated shingles is in contact with the upper side of a second coated shingle and the lower side of the first coated shingle is in contact with the lower side of a third coated shingle, such that the release section on the first coated shingle is in contact with the adhesive of the third coated shingle.
