Caulks Nail Or Awl -- Better make it a long one! Step Five: If using caulk that comes in a cardboard tube, look for a second seal at the base of the spout *look* for a second seal? Anybody in this group able to see down that little hole you just cut in the tip? Step Nine: Use your finger to gently press the caulk into the corner or crack. Step 9A: Curse and scream at the sloppy job you did 'cuz we're not going to tell you to use a *wet* finger to smooth the bead until the "Tips & Warning" section later on. Step 9B : Clean up the mess you made when you laid the caulk gun down to smooth your bead 'cuz we didn't tell you to release the pressure so the caulk doesn't keep flowing out of the tube when you aren't looking. |
