3-in-1 Caulk Tool

This tool does an excellent job of smoothing out caulk with 3 different tips based on your application. The caulk removal tool works great when pulling it towards you instead of pushing it. Also, as you can see in photo that I apply painter's tape to removal side when not using it to prevent cuts. It would be nice if a cover was provided.

The caulking tool made easy work of the majority of the discolored caulk. The edge pulled up big sections without scratching the stone surface. I did have to use a small flat blade to clean up some of the smaller edges, but the tool did the heavy work. The rubber caulking triangle was nice to have and helped to lay an even smooth line. I like the 3 different measurement options as well.

This is a good tool but I was hoping the it would be a bit sharper to cut thru the caulk. I still needed to use a knife to cut out the material and this help remove it. The fact that it has scraper was very helpful as well. The rubber end for applying the caulk was nice too.

Awesome little caulk tool, feels good in the hand, perfect size built with quality strong and sturdy where it needs to be. Perfect flexibility for getting into angles to smooth out material. Great!

The cutter is not sharpened. It can’t actually cut anything. It will not remove any appreciable amount of caulk. I’m getting my stupid $7 back. And the pros use their finger to smooth caulk for a reason. It’s just better. If anyone actually used this tool before it went to production they would have never made it.

I’ve bought this tool several times over the years, and this is the best one! Typically they would break where the caulk remover blade is, but now they have replaced the plastic rivets with metal ones that go through the tool to the other side. This might be the last one I will ever need! Great job Husky!

The plastic blade curled up and became completely ineffective about halfway through the job. This was as I was removing silicone caulk after removing a shower door that had been in place 20 years. Can't attest to how it would work on less aged caulking or non silicone. Cheap, but a waste of money as now I have to buy another more effective tool.

I purchased this tool for a calk removal and replace project in our kitchen, it was a waste of $$. The original clear calking was about 20 years old. This tool was non-functional in cutting or pulling out the calk. Instead I used a Husky metal scraper (in the photo) that was able to scrape old calk from the horizontal and vertical parts of the counter, as well as pull the calk from deep inside the cracks. I would not recommend this product to anyone working on a similar kitchen counter project.

The edges of the metal "V" blades were blunt and the inside edges were burred so it would not begin to cut through caulk. I removed the burrs and beveled the inside edge which made it somewhat better. However when trying to cut through old caulk, the plastic, dual pin fastener that holds the metal blade to the handle popped out rendering it useless. These pins are 1/8" long and only extend into the handle 3/32". I suspect they were supposed to be glued or high frequency welded. Apparently neither were done properly.

For the comparatively low price, I wouldn't mind buying one of these and using it where and when it is appropriate. But, I found that it doesn't work in all caulking situations. When it does, it can work well. And, when it doesn't work well there are better alternatives. What I like about it: Stainless steel remover blade. It's stiff and has a sharp edge that digs into and under the caulk to a point. It digs well into wide bead caulk line. The plastic scraper won't mar porcelain or other easily scratched surfaces. The smoother has three radii appropriate for any smaller joint size and it's silicon which means no caulk will stick or adhere after curing. What I didn't like about it: Remover blade didn't work so well in the case of my whirlpool tub caulking which had a narrow bead and very small lip on tub. It could only remove some of the caulk on the tile and the lip of the tub. Scraper blade is a hard plastic. But I'd hesitate to use it with great force, like that needed to removed caulking from rough sawn siding trim prior to recaulk an paint job. The smoothing tool is in what for me is an awkward angle to use freely and, I've mastered the wet finger caulking technique and find it superior and easier than any caulking applicator tool. Less fuss and less bother. As I mentioned in the first paragraph, this tool is inexpensive and CAN be useful. So, pick one up if you think it might help in your situation. But, I don't see it always working better than an alternative.
