⏱️2 hrs + drying💰$15–25🟢Beginner⭐4.6 (287 reviews)
Remove old, moldy caulk and apply a clean bead that lasts years — not months.
Remove old caulk
Use a caulk remover tool or utility knife to cut and peel out all old caulk. This takes patience.
Clean and dry thoroughly
Spray with mold-killing cleaner, wipe clean, then wait 24 hours for full drying.
Apply new caulk
Cut the tip at 45°, apply steady pressure in one continuous bead along the joint.
Smooth and cure
Dip a finger in water and run along the bead. Do not use the tub for 24 hours.
