    • After applying the new caulk, dab a finger in water and smooth it out.

    • The more times you smooth it out, the more caulk you take off. This is why using more is better than using less.

    • It takes 24 hours for new caulking to dry. DO NOT get the surface wet during this time. It will ruin your work.

By using these tools and referring to this guide, you can re-caulk any part of your bathroom with relative ease.
