Thank you ever so much! We really need to learn how to do this. And squeezing the tube was not something we liked. So now I know to get a dripless gun.

This is such a huge help! Thank you!
The caulk line that happened with the back and forth motion reminds me of cake decorating!
Hahahaha, a tiny red rubber. Didn't think it was wise to reuse those things! Lol
Great tips. I'm a pro but always like to compare notes with other pros. You taught this old dog a new trick

Thank you Allie! I’m glad I could be of help 👍🏽🙏🏽😊
Great video brotha!! Excellent tips and tool recommendations. 🎉😊
I am so glad I watched your video this morning, for years as a do it yourselfer I have struggled with using the old type caulk guns and spending a lot of time going back over the caulking smoothing it out and wiping countless times so it would look good wasting a lot of caulk and having a very messy situation, your caulking tips are very valuable to me and I greatly appreciate your videos to help make projects easier, Thank you!
Marking the top and sanding block so the tube won’t rock….genius! Also, Love the soap n water to spray the caulk AND your finger before smoothing! What a difference. Thanks for making the video. So helpful!
Very helpful and timely! Thank you for doing actual demonstrations of your tips.
I was wondering how you clean up caulk that has been smeared out too far (as in 10:00 - 10:15). None of the videos seem to cover this.
Great video. Thank you.
Thank you for being so detailed and kind in the giving of your expertise.
I have watched videos from other KZreadrs. Your videos are the ones that tell me. "You can do it!!!" After watching your videos, I am ready to work on baseboards. I have already subscribed to your channel from another account because I use the account to watch videos. I am using this account to order a few materials on the links. You have done such a great job with videos. It is fair that I give you the commission. I am ordering materials now. Note: I also watched "The Baseboard Caulking Secret Tips and Tricks..."
Excellent tips I never would’ve stumbled upon by myself- ever. Including learning about the 2 types of caulking applicator gun. This presentation has been very helpful for my burgeoning home improvement skills going forward. Thank you! 🙏 🖼️ 🖌️
Great video. Learned a couple more tips I didn't know. Getting ready to caulk around new cabinets.
Thank you for these tips
Fantastic guide thank you!
Thanks. I will be doing lots of caulking this summer.
Those caulk caps will come in handy for sure.

These are very helpful tips to help people like myself that are new at this. I honestly would have never thought of any of these great ideas. I very much appreciate it! This is one of the best videos I have watched for helpful tips for diy projects. Thank you very much ..stay blessed
I need to get some of those caps. I normally waste at least 1/2 a tube when I use caulk due to it drying up. Thanks for the tips👍
This is one of the areas that I suck at - my caulking looks terrible. Thanks for the advice/ideas. Will try this out on my kitchen.
Thanks so much for the information, I'm going to attempt this myself as a DIY.
I'm new at this, the sanding, or the tape. Will definitely help me with remodeling. I am doing myself, Thank-you
Great tips for a DIYer 👍 thank you!

Love the caulk savers

Thank you excellent caulking tips .
Thanks for the info, very helpful
Great detail on your videos. Nice tips. Learn something each time
Love all of your tips...I'm always wasting caulk running my finger over it to smooth it out. The caulk caps are a great tip, and I will be buying some. I always stick a nailor screwin the tip which is never air tight and allows the caulk around the edges to harden in turn making a terrible line coming out hence having to finger smooth and wasting caulk. Great tips thank you!
Great info! Also have used a baby wipe to wipe my finger on while caulking. Lubes your finger nicely to get the job done!
Great tips, so very helpful!
Great tips and well explained!
Used the painter's tape as you suggested and got the beautiful straight line. However, when I pulled the tape off, it pulled out some of the caulking. I let it dry overnight and that was the result.
very good lesson. thanks so so much
Great idea’s thanks!

Thank you for the tips on caulking. I don't exactly know how many times I have had to recaulk in the bathroom. Trust me when I say a lot! I especially like the marking arrow. I think I can do this with more skill than luck this time.

Great ideas!
Good one! Painters tape + soapy water trick, that's the ticket! And keep a damp rag nearby to remove the excess that can build up on your finger tips on long runs. I like the mini rubber caps, but first i stick a screw in it; helps clean out the dried gunk when you go back a few weeks later

Soapy water is absolutely wrong. It WILL cause the sealant to fail prematurely. It is common sense and NO professional caulker does this
Very useful tips. Thank you.

Great caulking suggestions! Marking the top of the tube will solve an ongoing problem of mine, can’t believe I never thought of it! To seal an open tube, I use fingers cut from old latex gloves secured with a rubber band which work well and are also reusable, but I may try the tube caps. I’ve never been a fan of painter’s tape-no matter how careful I am when I remove the tape, the edges of the caulk lift up and create a step, and with some practice I don’t think it’s necessary for good results. Many thanks for your helpful vids!

Super handy and perfect timing. Currently sealing up a detached garage and am dreading having to break out the caulking gun, one of my least favorite jobs to do. One other tip I was shown in the past is to use an ice cube to wipe the excess. It will naturally mold itself to the angle and is always wet so it's easy to wipe off, then just get another once it melts.

Finish Line Caulk Pre Filled Precision Applicators are the easiest way to caulk fine lines, small gaps, cracks and hard to reach places. Less waste and less mess. When quality and details matter. Finish the job with Finish Line Caulk.

Great video and tips. Appreciate your videos cause they have helped me DIY almost everything since I bought my house in 2021. They have even saved me from picking some shady contractors for the tougher job. Now that $50 would really come in handy to get me a new caulking gun and caps... catch my drift... wink wink..
Great tips for a Novice like me❤
