Questions & Answers

For exterior use? Paintable?

Asked by: Anonymous
The only good thing about this product is that it's cheap but, on that note, you get what you pay for. DAP latex caulks are ok for the purpose of caulking over nail heads on siding but, I do not not recommend using any DAP latex caulk product for any exterior window, siding, or trim applications. It is a water based product that will dry out and will not stand up to the prolonged exposure to the outside elements and constant high temps of summer. It will fail within 5 yrs regardless if the product says 10, 25, or 40 yr etc. Using this product has been the cause for me personally having to repair rotted siding, trim, window frames, and retro fit style windows, and in some cases the cause behind extensive repairs to the exterior wall framing because the caulking had cracked and completely failed, and always in the 5 yr time frame I stated before. I recommend using a polyurethane based caulk for exterior applications such as these. It will save you in the long run, and I will happily dispute this with anyone who tries to say different, including the manufacturers themselves.

Alex Plus 10.1 oz. White Acrylic Latex Caulk Plus Silicone is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 616.

On four occasions in the past six months, I have found defective tubes of this caulk. Mostly the plastic plunger was missing and the open end of the tube contained a layer of dry caulk. In one instance the tube had a plunger but was clearly mostly empty just by weight. I understand occasionally manufacturing issues happen however the same issue for at least half a year... DAP either does not care enough to fix this issue or is unable to do so. I have contacted them directly more than once so believe me they are aware. In any case, I am tired of wasting my time and money on a product I cannot use... absolute junk!!!

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Excitement to frustration. I was excited to get this product for sealing around my exterior home; window, trim, etc. Excellent flexibility (I need that for cedar siding!), adheres to wide range of surfaces, shrinks less (in my opinion it shouldn't shrink at all), waterproof (oh, a must --- I live in the Pacific NW!), etc. What could be wrong about this product? Oh, joy! Grinch time --- there it is in small print in 2 different sections; "Caulk ...dries clear in 7 - 14 days" and "Allow to dry clear before painting" (Seriously? 14 days?). So, when it is cured, it is clear. In 14 days. Really?!?! But the real kicker is "Don't apply when rain/freezing temps, are forecasted before full cure can occur." And, based on their label, that is 7 to 14 days. So, if there is a chance of rain within 2 weeks and you want to caulk, seal, and paint your home --- don't buy this product. Wishing now I would have purchased the "....paint within 30 minutes. Can apply in rain..." alternative brand. :(

I am using it to caulk along the edges of newly installed laminate floors. For this use, it takes several days to dry adequately based upon the amount I am using, and even after several days, it is still far from completely dry. In small quantities, it seems to work much better, but shrinks quite a bit. Based upon the amount I need to use, I will have to settle for a cheaper caulk like this one.

Accidentally purchased clear instead of white but the four tubes used (Home Depot was great in exchanging the remaining unused tubes) should have the same review as the case of white purchased: Excellent caulk. Easy to apply and have never had any problems with performance or durability.
