Can caulk be microwaved?
I just got some caulk from the garage, a new tube of silicone. It was
fairly cold in the garage, and the caulk is about 40 degrees. I put it a safe distance from the woodburning stove to warm up. I was wondering in the future ........ could I heat it up in the microwave? Steve |

Can caulk be microwaved?
Yes, caulk can be microwaved.
Should caulk be microwaved? I don't think so, myself. It might cure in the tube, it might burst inside the microwave. It could catch fire, too, which could be interesting - as in "may you live in interesting times". Or it could just emit all manner of toxic fumes and compounds - that might not be a good thing if you want to use the microwave, or the kitchen, or the house, again. tschus pyotr -- pyotr filipivich We will drink no whiskey before its nine. It's eight fifty eight. Close enough! |
