Wouldn't buying a huge fucking ice scraper work a lot better?
Source: I have a huge fucking ice scraper. It has a squeegee/brush part for thin ice and/or water.
This isn't the exact model I use, but it's similar. Extendable scraper, which is hardly an accurate descriptor since you should really be using the squeegie/wiper side for the roof. It's never scratched my roof. If you're still worried, you can just exercise more caution and take it slower.
The key to getting snow off your roof? Getting out there (when possible) as it's snowing. That way, the snow is still wet and won't freeze on top. Maybe it's snowing while you're sleeping at night, and there's not much you can do. In my experience, there's almost always a time I can stop what I'm doing and get the snow off/make my life easier before my life gets harder once it freezes more.
My car was just hit my a sheet of icy snow this morning that someone couldn't give two shits about. Could they have eliminated the problem before it was MY problem? Yep. In the afternoon yesterday. Did they? No. Don't be this person.
You should buy one of these for the next time it snows. Then use it.
