Use and Care Manual

Surface Preparation & Application:

1. Remove old caulk from surface. Make sure that surface is clean, dry and free of loose debris. Cut the

nozzle at 45° angle to desired bead size and load cartridge into caulking gun. Hold the cartridge at a 45º

angle and fill the joint with an ample amount of sealant.

2. Use the DAP CAP™ (purchased separately) to smooth, seal and finish caulk for professional results

with no mess. Reseals cartridge for storage and reuse.

3. Allow caulk to dry 2 hours (longer in cool/humid conditions) before painting with latex or oil-based

paints.

For Best Results:

• Do not apply when rain or freezing temperatures are forecasted.

• Store away from extreme heat or cold.

• Do not use for below waterline, or below grade applications, or for marine or automobile applications.

• Joint size should not exceed 3/8" wide x 3/8" deep. If joint depth exceeds 3/8", use polyethylene or

polyurethane foam as a back up filler.

• Do not use for filling surface defects, butt joints, tuck pointing or expansion joints or joints less than 1/8"

bead size.
