I wanted to say how much I respect you for having the integrity to show your mistake so that we can all learn! Thank you so much and may you be richly blessed!

This same thing absolutely happened to us in the uk, white panels were fine but darker panels got to over 50c and just buckled all of the sealant we had when we returned the next day ! Lessons learned

Massive Respect for owning a mistake and for wanting to fix it. No blame, just owning it. Legend.

I’m really glad to find this video, there aren’t many on KZfaq about how to do sealant joints on metal panel cladding. Thank you and hope you do more videos like this!

Congrats! You´re really professional, I love your work. Thanks for show us yours mistakes and we will try not to repeat. Thank you.

Thank you it has been some time since I caulking I am a ironworker lock 16 and I have been out due to back to back operations and I am trying to rebuild my strength so I can get back to what I love doing you guys did a grate job when you remove the wrap if you use a1/8 inch shem and run it across the wrap and it comes off and no scratches thank you

Thank you,massive respect for your work

Thank you for the information, hope it turns out OK for you😊👍

Gracias por compartir este video voy a comenzar un trabajo con los mismos materiales seguiré tus consejos Dios te bendiga a ti y tu familia y tu grupo de trabajo

Man you guys must be true professionals. That caulking job is immaculate. I only do caulking jobs on parking ramps and some drive ways for extra money. Most of our commercial jobs don’t require such perfection but this is interesting to watch. I really like the idea of removing the cover and how you guys did it on the sides. Very cool trick. If I ever come across these panel types I will definitely be applying this technique.

Thanks for the video man. Had the same thing happen on a job of mine. I was pissed at my guy that did the caulking. Had him cut out the 4 store front frames he did and told him id show him how to do it right. Caulked it early before it got too hot... the next day it looked worse than he had left it 🤣. Finally figured out I needed to caulk it towards the end of day when it was the hottest. Only problem is you have to haul butt because it skins up fast.

Great work, watching your videos gave me more confidence to fabricate myself. What’s the sealant you use?

Good info thanks. About the expanded caulking, there is a special tool for grooving tread on tires, kinda like a knife and they have different shapes. You might be able to run it and scoop the excess caulk and leave a nice bead

What an awesome craftsman. Thank you for the videos. So you are mounting the aluminum panels on cinder block walls with concrete boards? How thick are the concrete boards? Can you do OSB and concrete boards?

Awesome tutorial, I'm hanging alucobond panels on the new st jude building in Memphis and this helps out alot. Great video guys 👍

Ey man that's really good finish. Especially on the transitions. You can't see a single tool mark. 🤙

Muito bom o acabamento perfeito, parabéns.

Please how do get to learn more of this work, is really in my interest

I was taught to always use backer rod. Every place, and depth at one half the width. By not using rod, you can’t set a consistent depth. That may have added to your problem with your dark panels.

Very skillful man

I like it to use a pice of the same panels to peel it, that's going to make it a lot easier,i don't like to use nife because you will scratch it. Nice job i love it.

Hello. I know this is a long shot as this video is pretty old but… I’m a DIY homeowner that bought a house clad in ACP. I’m adding an extension to the garage and found your other videos regarding the creation and installation of the panels to be very helpful. This summer I’m going to start the process of re-caulking the entire house as it’s 20+ years old and a lot of the joints between panels have failed. What I’m worried about is getting the old caulk out of the joints. Using a utility knife is going to be physically daunting and probably nearly practically impossible given the sq/ft of the house and the height of the walls (20’+). Is there a special tool for this application or one that you can think of that could be repurposed to do this? How about a chemical solution that could either remove the caulk itself or at least soften it to the point of making the removal easier? Any and all ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

you can use a small chunk of acm to quickly score the edge and not worry about scratching or chipping with a knife. Faster, easier.

Good job 🎉

Thats why always remove cover plastic acm panels needs to breath and stay without plastic couple days and plus the joints are 3/4 depth is 1" u have to use bakerrod if you did used the bakerrod can expend also and the best caulk is Sika for hot weather .

I know even what to say, but Thank you!!

Wow. What sealant did u use?

The equipments which platform can I get it to buy

4:52 That isn't correct. Such an application of caulking requires a bond breaker. The baker rod is useful not only minimize use of caulking material but it acts as the bond breaker when bond breaker tape isn't used. It is also used to achieve the correct width/depth ratio of the bead of caulk. Maybe the correct bead ratio and a bond breaker would have prevented that failure. I don't think you included the exact type of caulk that you were using? Also, your title was a bit confusing since it seems to imply that the problem was "sausage caulking", I know that isn't what you meant now that viewed the whole video.

Hello What thickness of the of the panels do you use im looking to do My commercial garage and im not sure what to get can you help me out will any of these about work best 1220*2440mm, PVDF coating, plain color, normal polyethylene core, 4mm / 0.50+0.50mm, 4mm / 0.40+0.40mm, 4mm / 0.30+0.30mm, 4mm / 0.25+0.25mm, 4mm / 0.21+0.21mm, 4mm / 0.18+0.18mm,

Have a question for you, how real caulkers do it here in Phoenix Az. during the summer months when temperatures are above 115° or more during the day...?

Do you do work in Ontario, Canada?

Also u do not use solvents on this type of sealants bc the surface will cure but the inside will never cure

Hey man, what did you end up doing to fix the issue?

I've been installing ACM for over 30 years. Don't use a utility knife to score the edge to remove the pealcoat. Cut a small piece of spline. Works much better

How did you repair that caulking?

Hello, what brand of caulking do you recommend?

Why using black silicon any reasons

You absolutely cannot leave the film on the metal panels instead of taping ( if you’re not a real caulker and have to tape?) when you pull the film you break the seal on the caulk and that’s only going to make it even harder to look perfect and this guys caulking is absolutely Brutal by real caulkers standards ( and I’m not talking top gun level, that’s a whole other thing) I’ve caulked those exact same type of metal panels and I know that they’re not as easy as they look . You have to be able to tape a perfectly straight line left back a tiny fraction otherwise you will do exactly what this clueless guy is doing When he pulls the film he wrecks the edge of the caulking and break the seal and then wet tooling dish soap and finger fucking Only in Woke Broken No Standards No Inspector USA
