4-Piece Caulking Tool Kit for Silicone Sealant, Grout and Sink Edges

My bead in my pic may not look as good as it could have because I ended up coming back to put on another layer after the silicone had already started to dry. It kinda made it look a little wavy. But I wasn’t happy with the thickness of my application in a couple problematic spots where the fiberglass was thin and needed additional support. These things ended up being much better than i expected. Which is such a weird experience when I’m usually deeply disappointed by impulse purchases. I’ve never been good at getting a clean looking bead from silicone or caulk around a tub. As I was prepping to reseal my tub, I just happened to view a short on social media recommending these tools. I thought they made the job look really quick, easy, and provided good results. You get 4 sizes. The packaging is nothing special. The quality of the tools is good enough, nothing special. You basically get a shaped silicone (I think) tip, that’s glued to a wooden handle. I ended up putting a little bit too much force on one when I was cleaning it and could hear the glue cracking a little bit. Nothing bad, just enough to make me realize I was being too rough. So you squirt out your silicone sealant, and use one of these tools to smooth out surface. This is where I was pleasantly surprised. The silicone sealant I was using really didn’t stick to the tip of these tools at all. It just gently glided across the surface of the applied silicone around the tub, and came off mostly clean, unless you had too much silicone sealant in your bead. These things made clean up so much easier than it normally would be. That’s their true value. Any extra silicone that got where it wasn’t wanted was super easy to clean up using these tools. And the benefit was it didn’t leave a sticky mess when I was done because it did such a good job of cleaning up the extra silicone. When I was smoothing the bead, I started with a size 2 (size 1 being smallest, size 4 being largest). But I ended up using a size 3 by the time I was done. For the price, I’d grab these for the ease of cleanup alone. I bought 2 tubes of silicone, but only ended up using one because there was so little waste.

Good quality

Very useful for caulking windows for a professional look. Only suggestion- practice on something first before using on your project. Especially with the multiple size options.

Little bigger than i figured they would be but well made nice feel overall seems a good product.

Well built. Works as they should. No complaints.

Current task was replacemenet of the 90 degree bath wall tile to bath tub seal. Used painter's tape to mark lines precisely. Used silicone caulk, not the new "Advanced Modified Polymer" (AMP) that failed to set after 3 days. The tender flexibility yet predictable toughness of these rounded tip spatula / spreaders made it easy to do a neat job. Use the appropriate size for the space you are filling taking advantage of their flexibility with the pressure you apply to the handle and angel of the drag. If you do use painter's tape as a guide just be sure to taper off the thickness of the caulking to minimum on the tape. If the caulking is too thick over the tape you'll have to be very careful how and when you pull the tape so the edges are well attached, smooth and subtle after the tape is removed. Good luck!!

They are very nice silicon spatulas. Only the smallest size worked for my needs ….project was re-sealing access plates on a boat deck. The others are huge. Cleans up easily with mineral spirits.

These tools worked great for my patio project. I used caulking between paver stones and these caulking tools in different sizes made the job a lot easier to push the caulking down between the stones and creating a smooth finish on top.

It’s best silicone tool I ever bought its nice long handle make it easy to get nice clean lines and easily clean it out.

Es para utilizarla con silicon o calafateo en general, para dejar terminaciones suaves y quitar el exceso. El mango es de madera muy suave y resistente, la goma es de silicon muy suave. No espero una durabilidad muy extendida, pero muy util para trabajos intermitentes o proyectos rápidos.

The best tools I've used for mastic

This is something you need if you want a good finish. We have beeb using dishwashing soap to make the sealant shiny. Thing is I don’t need to much soap with this tool.

思った以上、値段以上に万能です。 使ったあと溶剤で拭き取る際ネトネトなるのが少し気になります。
