All good suggestions. Keep in mind that the old caulk should be
competely removed down to the tile/porcelian and then the area should
be cleaned with alcohol and allowed to dry.

Note well that if the old caulk was silicon caulk, new silicon caulk
will not stick to it, so the old stuff MUST come off completely.
