Red Devil 0405 Duraguard Kitchen & Bath Siliconized Acrylic Caulk, 5.5 oz, White

Just because of the misleading of color, be careful if you want clear one, do not buy. Its white.

First one I ordered had a hole so I requested a replacement but the second one that arrived was an off yellow color. It did the job though!

There isn’t a gun that’s compatible with this tube, therefore making It a pain in the arse to get into far areas… and hard to dispense evenly.

Used it for my kitchen sink was my first time ever using and it was easy to dispense and I did a great job for my first time. Great product to work with.

Resealed the bathroom shower as intended. Mold resistant.

Product is ok, but do not make the mistake of buying the small squeeze tube for cheaper price. Very hard to dispense unlike the caulking gun size. Better the caulking gun (10 oz) size, you can control and slowly dispense the product with the caulking gun. Product itself is good, but squeezing the tube is hard, not like toothpaste, it has a lot of resistance due to the consistency of the product. I finished my project with some difficulty.

I used this to caulk around my bathtub and waited 72 hours to use the shower per the direction and it immediately cracked. And yes, I removed all the old caulking and cleaned it thoroughly. Furthermore, it was completely dry before the application of this product.

Used it to seal the bathtub, let it dry for a couple of days. Then as soon as it got water on it, it became bubbly, and pealed off. This is the worst silicone caulk ive used in my life.

Easy to clean

I have this thing about bad caulking jobs so I try to make an extra effort with stuff I have to look at every day. I use the small(5.5 oz), size squeeze tube-its easier to use but get two tubes to be sure. Besides its handy stuff to have around. The directions say to remove all old caulk before using. This tends to be a pain. If there is mildew or staining at the edges in many cases scraping the old caulk does not remove the discoloration and the smaller and neater the caulking the more the stain will show. Covering the old caulk with an additional layer can cover more of the affected surface in this case. With careful surface prep in those cases this works best for me. Its a judgement call. Either way scrub the surface with soapy water and a scrub brush(pot brush is perfect if you have one). Let surface dry then go over with paint thinner, lighter fluid, or naptha spirits, etc.-sandpaper in a can type product is ideal. Cut the tip at 45 degree angle, start with a small hole and trim larger if needed. Take your time applying. When you are done check for missed spots with too little coverage. Take 5 or 10 minutes off, let it dry for a while-it will be much easier to trim up. Put a very generous shot of dish washing soap in a bowl,add water and with a wet rag well wrung out you are ready to trim. Redipping frequently run your finger lightly along the caulk, washing any buildup off your finger by dipping in bowl and rubbing against other fingers or that wet rag. Once you get a good buildup of soapy water on top of the caulk(dont get carried away-a few drops at a time)you can final smooth the corners and finish the job with long swipes down the straightaways. The soapy water supplies a low friction interface that combined with a light touch works a charm. Let dry overnight. Places with a heavier buildup may require as long as a week before curing. After drying I always notice a few spots where the coverage is too light. Touching up means reapplying small amounts,the damp rag and the bowl of soapy water but should go much quicker. Im perfectionist so usually need a final small third application a day later. After it dries there will be a scum of residue that a scouring pad and soapy water will take care of. Careful here,until it cures just scrub up to the edge of the caulking. Done.
