standing seam for 2/12 pitch

whoodle | Posted in General Discussion on

I have just finished the sheathing on a 2/12 pitch porch roof,  There are four hips one small roof deck and about 1500 square feet of roof.   I want standing seam in either copper or light gray metal.  I am getting some conflicting details on the underlayment.   Grace, Rooftop 11, 30lb felt.  I would appreciate any experiences and details.
