I've had caulking on my mind for these last few weeks. Ever since my wife went to Utah and I went to Costa Rica, I knew that when I came home, I'd have to do some. I'm not that good at it though; I don't have enough practice. I was amazed yesterday that even after I stopped squeezing the handle, stuff still kept coming out the tip, and it dripped all over the tub. I used my fingers to try to put a line in it, but it just looks all wrinkled now, like I dribbled caulk all over the place.Originally posted by Sizzle View PostThat is where most caulking projects are found, correct.
You really DO need a lot of advice on this subject, it would appear."Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action. His actions are supposed to reflect his ethical code.

On my honor, that is a highly-accurate description of what happened; I'm talking about placing a water-proofing substance in the crevices around the edge of my tub and tile.Originally posted by Jarid in Cedar View PostAaaaaaannddddd.....one step too far...."Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action.

Best advice a contractor ever gave me when working with caulk, silicone or similar compounds, wet your finger with windex before touching the stuff. It is amazing, none of it sticks to your finger and it applies to the desired surface quick and easily.
