Ok, just got back from the Hardware store I bought the stuff from. The
older man said he sold me the
DAP Kwik Seal Tub & Tile Adhesive Caulk

Having used that "stuff" in my trade (glass) back in the EIGHTIES, that
crap is like white diarrhea in a tube.

Let it seep out overnight, clean up the excess, and use your GE SILICONE
to seal the outside of your tub.

You may even want to wait a couple of days to make sure it has stopped
running out before applying the silicone.

Btw, just wipe up the excess with a dry paper towel or rag, water will
reactivate that crap...LOL
