caulk
caulk application
tip: for best results, thoroughly clean the area that will be receiving the caulk.
pick up the caulk and pull on the cap until you see a small hole. with your dominant hand, firmly grip the caulk around the base of the dispenser. position the caulk’s dispensing hole at an angle against the crack that needs to be filled. be sure to press the tip firmly against the crack. squeeze gently but with an even pressure, moving the caulk along the crack beginning at the bottom.
after the caulk has sufficiently filled the crack, smooth by gently running a wet finger along the caulk.
allow to dry two hours before applying oil or latex.

yeah, me too. i was using alot of caulk yesterday and learned a few things. btw, i should have mentioned to you that when the caulk is ready for the latex or oil it will be firm but flexible. and be prepared for clean up. caulk gets everywhere! i had that sticky white stuff on my shirt, my legs, my arms. it even got in my hair. and my hands were totally covered in caulk. i had to use three towels to clean it all up and then take a shower.

Yeah...good caulk can be pretty messy. Sounds like you had your hands full.

i did! and there's still more to come. i'm going to have to use a lot of caulk in the bedroom soon. many a crack in there, lemme tell ya! they're begging for some caulk.
it's funny how nailing hard wood against a wall will leave so many cracks needing caulk.

I've heard that sometimes a crack just needs a good screw to go with the caulk.
