Apply caulk into clean joint with bulk caulk gun or trowel, following loading instructions from bulk gun manufacturer and ensuring not to entrap air in the caulk. If necessary, smooth bead immediately. 3. To ensure neat caulk lines, mask areas adjacent to joints. Once caulk is dry to the touch and does not transfer, remove masking tape. See titebond.com/sig for proper joint design. It is the sole responsibility of the user to thoroughly test any proposed use with all substrates to determine project suitability.
