Synthetic underlayment. Also, use 5/8" OSB so you avoid clips. Clips make make bumps visible if you use a darker colored roof. Also, what is your pitch?
12/12 pitch
I will have 7/16 osb than 1.5 inch polyiso that's bonded to another layer of 7/16 osb,no were to put clips.
Thanks
Unless they need to go on bottom layer of osb for support?
The ones underneath the foam don't matter. 12/12 you can use a snap lock panel roof no issues. That is one hell of a steep roof.
