If I accomplished nothing else during my room mate's two week absence, I needed to recaulk her bath tub. My friend, Nanc
y, came by to see what needed to be done. She loaned me her caulking gun and the rest of an opened tube of caulk. The first night I planned to caulk, I couldn't get the gun to work. Turns out the tube of caulk was clogged. Well, that wasn't the challenge the next night. The caulk was flowing like marshmallow topping on an ice cream sundae. By this time it was do or die. I had to get it done or it wouldn't have time to dry. After the deed was done I took the time to look on the internet for tips. I found a tool which applies the caulk in a beautifully even strip....for the next time. (Sorry for the poor quality of pictures - I might try again. Flash was too bright, room light was too dark. )
