   i've used tri-flex.... it was ok.. pretty tough stuff..4' rolls

   but i much prefer the RoofTopGuard II... which comes in 5' rolls , (10 sq/roll)..

   the Titanium looks similar to the Tri-Flex

   Did you prefer the Topguard II simply because it was wider than Tri-flex 30(which also has 1000 sq. ft./roll) or was there a quality difference?

   Topguard is great.

   Light, lays FLAT, when the wind catches it and rolls it in a knot it doesn't rip or kink. Just straighten it back out and keep going.

   Non skid too, like walking on a sidewalk.

   Good stufffffffffffff

   can't remember... i think the quality was the same... but  the 5' roll made a huge difference....

   on steep pitch we usually move our roofjacks in about 5' increments.. so the Tri-flex was very awkwardMike Smith   Rhode Island : Design / Build / Repair / Restore

   I've used both RTGII and Titanium. Mike makes a good point about the 5' length of RTG in his application, but that's not applied to me yet. I prefer the Titanium, because the RTG I used tended to shrink slightly. I used it first and there was a bit of a learning curve to it. I do feel like the added cost of these materials is more than offset by labor savings and wind resistance. I had one roof plane set for 5 mos. thru the winter in a very windy location. No problems.
