rust stains on new asphalt roof

Tags: Roofing & Siding
This winter rust stains appeared on our 2-yr. old asphalt roof and we don't know if it came from our chimney cap or a powder soot product used on our fires to prevent creosote build-up. How can we remove this stain without redoing shingles.

Thanks for any input.

that is a great question actually. If you recall what brand your shingles are the only real sage way of doing that would be to call the manufacturer and have them reccommend something, there are alot of products out there that will discolor your roof if you are not careful
