Anyway to repair a wet flat tar/felt roof (temporarily)

I have a neighbour with a flat roof that is leaking slightly and wants a product he can “slap on” whilst it’s still wet. He is planning to have it renewed/mended in the summer when it stops pissing down. Can anyone recommend such a product???

I've used Acrypol, Cromapol, Flexacryl. You can get a 5kg of Sealacryl online for about £30. Spent a good few hundred quid over the years. One side of the dormer is just about holding, the other side is shot! I keep putting off doing it properly as I'd like to extend the dormers by a few feet either side. 

 

It'll work for a while. Best results I've had when I've not just brushed off the debris but used a cleaner. Think I used No Nonsense Degreaser last time.

Somewhere on here is a product that can be applied in the wet.  Might be what @Onoff uses.

 

All the names I quoted work when the roof is really damp/wet. They were all much the same to apply. Broom to spread, bucket with a bin liner in for the broom when you're done. I'd go for this, cheapest I can find for 5kg in eBay:
