With the previous question. I am using 26 gauge ag style roofing panels. The supplier only has a galvanized Wood-Grip screw available and no recomendations for anything else. I have found thru another supplier a stainlees steel wood-grip screw with aluminum washer and EPDM bonded seal. Would there be any compadibility problem with the roofing. I am planning on using painted panels. Thanks Greg

You should be using a painted screw which matches the roofing. The screw should have a cap head covering a neoprene washer. The manufacturer of your roofing should have suitable fasteners which they supply with the roofing. If they do not or if you cannot find out who the manufacturer of the roofing is, please find another product and a reputable manufacturer.
