That’s when we stopped using the washroom and just closed the door.
I lay down a thin bead and then use my finger to smoosh it until it’s smooth.. Two things are wrong with this: 1) If you read the tube, you’re not supposed to actually touch the caulking with your bare skin.I got a latex mechanic’s glove that I found in my stash of tools.
This made it pretty hard actually cause the glove was way too big.I usually have smaller gloves around, but I ran out, so I ended up using my finger anyway.The other thing wrong with this approach (2) is that it didn’t end up looking so great for an after paint job kind of finish.
Especially not when you’re on the boarder of two different colors.There was kind of a lightly blended shiny white line instead of a nice crisp clean line.
I took the same approach as I usually take when I do something like a bath tub and I taped off where I wanted my line to end.
Then I put down the bead of caulking (sometimes, I put a bit too much, obviously) and smoothed it out.It’s the stuff that dreams are made of, this place.
Even with a million foot garden hose in the picture..The thing is, I’ve let it get like this:.
It’s a junk heap and it’s embarrassing.You can see this from the road when you drive by..
