Default Frame sealant

Cic.


Can you get "textured acrylic" in cartridges? Beige/grey sealant with added
sand that looked like cement could be useful for minor repointing and other
small jobs, would have an indefinite shelf-life, and would need so much
practice to get right.
The few times I've tried to use mortar fillets they've shrunk or cracked and
fallen out.
