Is there a chalk out there that is the color of mortar that is a[[lied
between brick?

Thanks,

home depot has over in the brick/concrete/mortar section, caulking gun
size tubes of mortar repair or similar named stuff, which is actually
mostly silicone rubber or something but colored gray and with some
sand in it for texture so it looks like mortar. the tube is kind of
brownish red, and the end of the nozzle has a square hole with a
square tab sticking out for making a nice smooth bead. (as you can
tell, i've used it lately) works nicely. easier to work with for just
filling cracks and gaps than real mortar is.
