My roof has wear in one area where some work was done on the siding and people walked back and forth on the asphalt shingles and scrubbed the granules off. CAn you buy gannules and spread them out on a very hot summer day?

In a word, no.
Even if you could, the chances of matching that on your shingles is next to nill. Also, even on the hottest day they wouldn't stick. You would need some sort of adhesive.
Do you have or can you find matching shingles? I think your only option is to replace them, but let's see what others have to say. Lotsa real brainy people here may have some ideas.
btw, I would think the repair people who destroyed the shingles should be responsible for fixing it. They should have protected the shingles they were walking on so much.

yeah, your never going to fix them cosmetically. they are fairly easy to replace if you have matching shingles
Yes, dig them out of the gutter and glue them back in.
That's a job for people who are into tedious work tho. Glueing them on one at a time is probably almost as hard as collecting moth balls.

That only works if you happend to have the foresight to number them first.

Should have had carefull siding people. There was no need of that. They should be replacing those shingles for you.
But even if you have to do it yourself, that is the only fix now that the damage is done.

You used to be able to get the granules.
