I only have the vertical joints to caulk.

Hi there,

I was about to caulk the new hardi siding on my garage (horizontal lap
boards). Since the bottom part of each board kicks out from the lap,
there
is quite a bit of space to fill with caulk for each seam. Do I keep
filling
these gaps with oodles of caulk? This seems like it will be a very slow
and
tedious job... Any tips on how to caulk lap siding?

thanks




did you install it backwards?
did you nail the overlap?

usually you would caulk only vertical joints NOT horizontal joints.

If you need to caulk all overlapped joints
it is installed incorrectly.
