Flashing (weatherproofing) bark was occasionally used as a flashing material. Most flashing materials today are metal, plastic, rubber, or impregnated paper. Metal flashing materials include lead, aluminium, copper, stainless steel, zinc alloy, other architectural metals or a metal with a coating such as galvanized steel, lead-coated copper, anodized aluminum, terne-coated copper, galvalume (aluminum-zinc alloy coated sheet steel), and metals similar to stone-coated metal roofing. Metal flashing should be provided with expansion joints on long runs to prevent deformation of the metal sheets due to expansion and contraction, and should not stain or be stained by adjacent materials or react chemically with them.
