Caulkstrips Tub & Floor

Instructions

Surface Preparation: Remove all loose or protruding caulk. If silicone caulk has been used, it must be completely removed. If necessary, mineral spirits/paint thinner may be used to soften any remaining particles of caulk.

Thoroughly clean with scouring powder to remove caulk residue, soap film, mildew, and rinse clean. Use rubbing alcohol for final cleaning of surfaces. Allow surfaces to dry thoroughly before installing caulkstrip.

Application to tub and floor:


  1. Measure the longest length of the tub and cut caulkstrip to that length.
  2. Pre-bend the caulkstrip by folding it at the score line to form a 90° angle.
  3. Peel the first 12 inches of backing paper and begin to press the folded caulkstrip into the joint where the tub meets the floor. Pressing the caulkstrip firmly against both tub and floor, continue to peel the backing paper along the base of the tub.
  4. After installing, run your fingers firmly over the caulkstrip to ensure good adhesion and watertight seal. Do not use shower or tub for 12 hours following installation.
