Hello...
Is there any way to get old caulk off of brick?
Thanks much for any thoughts..
How extensive? All around windows/doors, or a splatter here and there?
The thicker portions may pull of like a length of rope. I dealt with
the problem around wood windows with limestone siding. I didn't
contemplate trying to remove it from the limestone, as it was too rough,
irregular and tough work. I cut back as well as I could and put new
caulk and paint out to edge of the old to clean up appearance-wise. If
the brick is smoothe enough, it might turn out well enough if you cut
back, with sharp scraper or razor, to level it out.
