Visit us at toolboxdiy.com/
Welcome to a knowledge base video brought to you by Toolbox DIY where we will introduce you to the basics of choosing the right caulk for your project. This is a primer to help familiarize you with the various caulk types you can expect to find at your local hardware or big box home improvement store.
In this video, we'll cover acrylic latex caulks, silicone, hybrid caulks, polyurethane and specialty caulks. Each caulk type has an application example to give you a better idea of where certain types of caulks can and should be applied.
We conclude with a couple of helpful tips for applying caulk. So sit back, relax, and get prepared to gain some useful knowledge for your next DIY project!

Your facial hair with each scene was rapidly diminishing until at the final scene it was totally gone! I was worried the eyebrows will be gone next. But perhaps it will happen in the next video. LOL!

@ToolboxDIY 6 жыл бұрын

I'm glad you found this useful! With the exception of 100% silicone, most of the temperature limits are manufacturer & product specific. They all have their own "proprietary" formulas so the temp limits can vary even if two products are labeled as the same sealant type.

@@ToolboxDIY I agree, thanks for the video. Also liked the non-verbal exploration of various levels of facial hair. Any chance you have experience with caulking around polypropylene shower pans? Sadly 100% silicone doesn't adhere, and Siliconized Acrylic Latex caulk sucks. Any ideas?
