wherein the ASW filled coating comprises:
30% to 50% by weight of an asphalt based on a total weight of the ASW filled coating,
wherein the asphalt comprises the waste asphalt;
50% to 70% by weight of the at least one filler material based on the total weight of the ASW filled coating;
wherein the at least one filler material comprises limestone; and
forming a roofing shingle comprising the ASW filled coating.
