cock!

[Sinny]

Actually, caulk. Cock. I always want to call it cauLk, emphasis on the L. Bf snickers when I do that and tries to get me to say cock.

What's the most efficient way to re-caulk exterior windows? Go.

 

[blobfish]

I don't know, but I pronounce it "cawk".

The old fashioned way is still the best.

Don't use silicon based caulk for exterior use. It degrades in the sun.

Exterior windows, both facing south, no direct element exposure. Caulk is peeling up in spots.

I have two of those guns. I usually use latex for inside and outside. Thoughts?

windows are glazed, not caulked.

I'd guess the existing material is drying out and shrinking.

I've used DAP with good luck. You might look at this stuff.

OR, go to a local paint store and see what they recommend for exterior caulk.

Were those crunchies in your burrito? or were they glazing points?

Pay a hot young glazier to do it for you

I'm betting the caulk is bad around the exterior of the window frames and not the glass, proper.

Bingo. Around the frames. I lack the proper knowledge to get the vernacular, but it's the frame that has the issue (my windows are double pane and newish and I would never be so stupid as to glaze them). My local hardware store is a big box, which I hate. I see I am going to have to take another fucking field trip to the store where the old dude works who taught me how to replace the plumbing under the bathroom sink at my old house. He drew me a diagram. That was 8 or 9 years ago. I hope he's still alive.

The big boxes suck, IMO.

I'd be happy to hold the ladder while you're working.

That's what my next door neighbor said before he started snickering. I told him to suck it. He's good people, though. He put moss killer on my roof in the spring.

Oh, God!
You've just reminded me I need to get up on my roof and deal with the lichen.
That's right, I have a lichen-garden on my roof.
In Australia!

He and I might trade off. What's his beer of choice?

Caribou (reindeer) eat lichen. Put one on the roof.

He's a solid Budweiser guy. He likes rum drinks, too. I usually give him baked goods, though. He likes those better, so does his lovely wife.

Got one for sale?
I'm cashed up - I gave the man anal last week, and he's been literally throwing money at me since!

What if you're allergic to latex?

If you are talking about fairly new vinyl pre hung or wooden pre hung or for that matter, even aluminum pre hung windows, and you notice that the existing caulking between the jambs and sill of the vinyl, wood, or aluminum frame work of the prehung window has degraded ie: shrunk or cracked badly, then you should use vulkem(moisture cured exterior grade caulking) can be found at Home.Depot. If you are noticing your actual window panes.loosening up from the voided glazing or missing points. that is often found in vintage built on site single and.double hung windows of yesteryear then you should hire a glazier. Other than that your average carpenter or painter worth his salt will be able to advise you.
