The house is in Dallas, Texas. Any good caulk will work. I buy DAP painters caulk by the case. It cures quickly and is paintable in about 30 minutes. Make sure the caulk says it's paintable and is designed for outdoor use, preferably on siding. -- Steve B. New Life Home Improvement I'd have to disagree with this one. While latex caulks are user friendly, they will not remain flexible nearly as long as a good urethane caulk. I'd use OSI quad. (http://www.osiproseries.com/ Category.aspx?CategoryID=Window-Siding-Sealants). Superior adhesion, superior flexibility when compared to latex. |

The house is in Dallas, Texas. Thanks in Advance Lyle I used Hardie color-matched caulk on mine. I'm pretty sure it was a tri-polymer type caulk. You also might want to consider using pre-painted hardie-plank. The time saved is well worth it. |

But isn't "painters caulk" typically the cheapest lowest quality caulk you can buy? Make sure the caulk says it's paintable and is designed for outdoor use, preferably on siding. |
