It's very im- portant to make sure they are clean and dry and free of any loose paint or old caulking. A screwdriver can be used to remove old caulk. You may also want to mask the edges of the area you're going to caulk with masking tape, to ensure that you end up with a nice, even line with no smears or blobs. If you are caulking a gap wider than a quarter of an inch, you should apply com- patible packing material first. When caulking, take your time; don't rush the job. Also keep in mind that most caulks require adequate ventilation during applica- tion and curing. Once you're finished, you can smooth the surface of the caulking by dipping your finger or a sponge in water and running it along the caulking. If you have any leftover caulk, insert a good-sized nail into the nozzle of the tube to keep the material Ethics From Page 1 required to repeat certain education courses.
