caulk
caulk application
tip: for best results, thoroughly clean the area that will be receiving the caulk.
pick up the caulk and pull on the cap until you see a small hole. with your dominant hand, firmly grip the caulk around the base of the dispenser. position the caulk’s dispensing hole at an angle against the crack that needs to be filled. be sure to press the tip firmly against the crack. squeeze gently but with an even pressure, moving the caulk along the crack beginning at the bottom.
after the caulk has sufficiently filled the crack, smooth by gently running a wet finger along the caulk.
allow to dry two hours before applying oil or latex.
