Whether it's shrinking, swelling, extreme weather or settling foundation, Sashco Log Builder Caulk moves with your home, maintaining an effective seal. Since it stretches and compresses up to 100% of the original joint size and stays rubbery, Sashco Log Builder Caulk won't crack or pull away. Instead, it creates a tight seal to keep water, dust, bugs and wind from seeping into your home. Sashco Log Builder Caulk is the smooth sealant for milled and hand-crafted log structures. Log Builder Caulk Features & Benefits • Smooth latex caulk - won't crack, peel or pull away. • Excellent elasticity, memory and adhesion. • Water-based – easy to apply and clean up. • Freeze-thaw stable. Log Builder Application Methods & Tooling • Use a caulking gun when using either the 29oz. or 10oz. cartridges of Log Builder. • When using a cartridge, cut the spout at a 45 degree angle to desired bead size. • Requires no heating prior to application, but will dispense easier when kept warm before use. • Should be tooled directly after application to ensure good adhesion and a smooth looking bead. • May be tooled with ordinary masonry-type tooling blades, a wetted finger, or a damp polyethylene foam brush. • Work the material smooth, tooling Log Builder tightly to the surfaces. Keep a rag handy for clean up.
