I wouldn't recommend using the shingles for cap, as they will delaminate. Go to the supplier that you purchased the shingles from and get the appropriate amount of "Hip and Ridge" shingle in a matching color. They will know what that means. If they seam confused, say I need cap for the shingles. OC cap cover 33LF per bundle. I don't know what type of shingles you are using, but check to see how many LF a bundle of the applicable cap cover. Measure the LF of your project that need cap, and order appropriately. Many roofers will say that there is no difference between cutting 3 tab and using ProEdge or the manufactures "Hip and Ridge". However, the hip and ridge usually have a much higher wind rating than cap cut from a 3 tab. As Archs have a higher wind rating than 3 tabs. The manufacturer will warranty the shingle only if it's installed correctly with the proper accessories. Please don't skip steps to save $20, that can bite you in the ass down the road.. Hope I answered your question. Thanks for the comment.
