If you can caulk it cleanly- Go for it... Skip the alex plus- too many pops later. Use Dynaflex - Good stuff. Caulked thousands of feet of trim with this.

Caulk like a pro

  • Buy a decent caulk gun This one is the one I use, quite serviceable.

  • Cut the tube with a very small hole and just a little bit of angle.

  • Keep your caulk gun perpendicular to the trim and pull steadily at an even pace. The tube tip will "tool" the caulk bead... Smaller beads are better, unless you have grand canyon sized gaps- then use [caulk backer rod] (http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/161285758890?lpid=82.)

  • Stop intermittently and clean the excess caulk that builds up with the tooling from the end of the tube. A legal pad works great for this wipe the tube on the sheet, when the sheet has to many globs on it- chuck it. There is a pristine surface waiting to be defiled

  • Lightly mist the caulk with windex of 409.This acts as a caulk release and the caulk will only stick to the surface it was applied on.

  • Tool the bead with the greatest tool God gave you... your index finger. Wipe the excess on your legal pad.

  • Rinse and Repeat

    Edit for product links

    Here is a video tutorial. Sashco makes fine products- Hopefully they did as I instructed. I did not watch the tutorial.

> Amazon is basically people collectively deciding they are too lazy to drive to the mall

Its not that I'm too lazy to drive to the mall -- its that the mall (or no store really) carries the lower volume but better made and more functional product. And ordering it direct uses that small firms crappy shipping and service.

So Amazon is win/win in many case.

A simple example. This caulk gun is incredible. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000DZFCTQ/ I didn't know it mattered until I got one over the $5 home depot crap. But you can't find a good model like that anywhere locally...or you are driving/calling all over and checking every local trade supply shop.

Basically anything you want to buy where the producer isn't able or willing to pay for the placement. Competitive items like supplements are a huge one, with the better brands often getting pushed out the money the big players will pump at retailers for shelf space.

Combine that with Amazon having better customer service and an easier return process that many retailers...

(And I do buy local when I can, especially if its an independent shop.)
