Good tips! With caulk, less is more! You can always add more if needed :)

Used your Home Mender caulk techniques, outstanding results❗️

[@homemend]

Thank you appreciate you watching

[@Able60]

Being something most don't have to do very often it's amazing how it plays mind tricks with you when the time comes. I'm apprehensive to start, but when you think about it logically if you mess up it's no big deal at all. Thanks for the tips, much appreciated.

[@homemend]

Absolutely able. Nailed it. You’re awesome.

[@imsogodsgurl]

I have to say that the calk aisle is indeed intimidating. I always end up with a mess when I try to calk and I think that maybe I am cutting too much off the end of the tube and I didn't know to cut it at an angle either. Great info today, Dustin, thanks!

[@homemend]

Thank you gg. Hope I took out some of the mystery 😊

Thank you share I appreciate the comment

After watching all your videos, I had the confidence to re-caulk my bathtub. Had to clean and remove the old stuff, then add the new stuff. It looks awesome. One thing I noticed you didn't do with your caulk is poke out the foil in the neck of the tube. I wasn't aware of it once and had caulk pouring out of the bottom of the tube!! Lesson learned! : )

[@homemend]

Hey Kerry! Such a bother LOL. Most of the ones I use I don’t need to be poked. after nipping the tip they are good to go

[@billytheweasel]

He makes everything look easy and almost fun. When I caulk ot looks like my kid smeared oatmeal on the table.

[@homemend]

Hey TD I told you the secret it’s the big yellow sponge. You got this LOL

[@VT-ix5oh]

Dustin, nothing about piercing the caulk seal inside, or the tools feature for it?

[@homemend]

Hey vt! Most caulks that I use don’t need piercing. That little poker is useless. It gets your gun all messy. If poking is needed I like to use a nail or something disposable. Good call!

[@daltonellington1340]

Got any tips specific to fire caulk?

[@homemend]

Hey Dalton, not too much really they go on fairly easy. Same context different surface. You got this

[@ACoustaDC]

Great video... I hate caulking and I suck at it. The problem is I do it too seldom. I am great after half a tub, but then I don't do it again for a year or two and I suck again. To prevent that I take forever and use a caulking tool and tape. And I have tried a bunch of tools, and found one that works for me.... but even then I suck.

[@homemend]

Hey ac! I hope this took some pressure off.

[@topsecretbear9918]

There is no better tool for finishing caulk that the finger.

[@homemend]

That’s right bear. All those specialty caulking gadgets cannot top the finger

[@alexill]

My wife said I’m pretty good at laying caulk 😉

[@homemend]

Yes sir so good to hear :-)

[@drkennedy611]

I usually have a 1/4 in gap to fill and the gaps aren't even.

[@homemend]

Hey sd. Try the finger trowel with less pressure buy consistent. You got this!

[@gulzeb]

I'd still find a way to caulk it up

[@homemend]

LOL you got this G

[@nestorroman2694]

The tip of my caulk gets hard.

[@homemend]

Hey Nestor that can be a problem. I like to use a wire nut or just nip a new tip every time
