It works as described
I needed to redo the caulking around my restroom toilet and molding and this brand had high reviews so I got two to be safe. The squeeze caulk was not as easy to use versus using this and a caulking gun. It makes your job much more easier. I would buy this again.

    The best caulk for bathroom. Easy to apply. After drying it feels like grout.

    Does NOT work for kitchen, bath area AT ALL, AVOID
    I cannot believe that this sealant is sold for kitchen, bath and plumbing. I can GUARANTY that it WILL NOT work for those applications. I tried TWICE with same area, thinking that I did not use as directed. It did not even hold up tile to tile corner for one day. Yes, I waited for more than 18 hours, and I did clean the corner area VERY thoroughly. I'd like to believe that there is something wrong with this batch.

    Thank you for posting your feedback. We are sorry to see your low star review on DAP Kwik Seal Plus. Based on your description it would appear to signal that there may be a bond-breaker on the existing surface (silicone sealant or its residue. Normal cleaning and surface preparation methods are not likely adequate to address this condition. At your convenience, please contact DAP’s Technical Customer Service Department at 888-327-8477 so that we can obtain some additional information from you and to provide you with guidance on how to best proceed.

      This is a HARD NO!
      Wish I had read the reviews before I purchased this to recaulk our shower. Cleaned the old caulk very well, let the shower dry completely, and cleaned all the surfaces with alcohol. Let the caulk dry for three days before using the shower. Two showers later I looked down and to my astonishment the caulk is disintegrating and pulling away from the wall/floor. It's not just the $16, it's the time lost and now having to redo the job with a real product. Shame on you Home Depot!

      Thank you for posting your feedback. We're sorry to see your low star review on DAP Kwik Seal Plus. Loss of adhesion to the substrate (often described as “peeling”or "pulling away") can indicate that there may be a bond-breaker on the existing surface (silicone sealant or its residue). In application areas where previously applied silicone sealant or its residue is present, proper adhesion development of other sealant chemistries would not be expected. At your convenience, please contact DAP’s Technical Customer Service Department at 888-327-8477 so that we can obtain some additional information from you and so that we can suggest some step to take towards resolution.

        Product became powder after few showers
        According to the description of product details, it is “100% waterproof seal….. Seal out water and moisture around sinks, tubs, showers, faucets, vanities, counter tops and fixtures.” I followed the instruction to use it in my walk-in shower. After a few showers, it became soft like Putty and then like powder and came off! Can anyone suggest what I should use?

        Thank you for posting your feedback. We're sorry to see your low star review on DAP Kwik Seal Plus. As this is a water-based/acrylic-latex formula, the sole drying mechanism is the evaporation of water. Dry time can be significantly impacted by cool or humid application conditions, moisture in/on the application surface or by thick (deep) applications of the sealant. Application outside of these conditions will lead to long dry times and slow performance development. Because you did not provide any details regarding your application, such as application surfaces, surface preparation, bead size, humidity or any information regarding your application technique, it is difficult to provide you with a more detailed reply or any specific product usage guidance in this format. DAP also offers a line of fast cure sealants, such as DAP AMP Advanced Modified Polymer Waterproof Kitchen, Bath and Plumbing Sealant or DAP Silicone Max 100% Premium Kitchen and Bath Silicone Sealants for use under more difficult application conditions or for projects that require faster "return to service times". Should you have any additional questions, wish to discuss our recommendation or your project in more detail, please feel free to contact DAP’s Technical Customer Service Department at 888-327-8477. Since you have posted similar commentary on multiple products, we have replied to those posts with similar responses as well. DAP

          Stay away
          Save your time and money and buy anything else. This stuff shrunk and cracked in the majority of the areas it was used. I was forced to rip it out and redo it. Do not use this product on anything you deem important.

          Thank you for posting your feedback. We're sorry to see your low star review on KWIK SEAL PLUS. As is the case with all acrylic-latex (water based) sealants, volume loss will occur as the product dries, this is normal characteristic for this type of formula. Only non-water/non-solvent-based sealants are capable of "low/no volume loss" performance, however, these types of sealants will require the use of solvent (mineral spirits/paint thinner) for clean-up, likewise, some of these sealants are not paintable. Because your review did not contain any details about your project, it is difficult to provide a more detailed reply in this format.

          Buyer beware: Shrinks and cracks excessively
          This is the only choice HD has in stock when it comes to paintable + water cleanup bathroom & kitchen caulks (i.e. contain mildewcide, and are not 100% silicone => can touch up if needed). However, I've never seen a caulk shrink and crack as badly (~48h after application!!) as this formulation on gaps as small as 1/8"-3/16", w/ or w/o backing rod. There's no movement in the surfaces, and the surfaces were properly sanded and cleaned prior; average indoor temp & RH. Buyer beware!

            Bad Sealant!
            Sealant completely failed after two weeks. Like you see on the pictures it start separating from shower tub. Everything was prepared like it should, clean with acetone, dry surface on both tiles and shower tub etc. When I start removing sealant today I notice that is very dry and cracking! It's not acting like silicone but like dry playdough. Very disappointed because I have to do all the work again in twio bathrooms and shower. no more DAP products for me

            Thank you for posting your inquiry on DAP KWIK SEAL PLUS. KWIK SEAL PLUS is a siliconized acrylic-latex (water-based) formula, not a "silicone" (100% silicone rubber) based formula. KWIK SEAL PLUS would not be expected to have a "rubbery" texture or the same degree of flexibility as a 100% silicone rubber sealant. DAP offers a full line of silicone rubber sealants, including DAP SILICONE MAX PREMIUM KITCHEN, BATH & PLUMBING 100% SILICONE SEALANT. At your convenience, please contact DAP’s Technical Customer Service Department at 888-327-8477 so that we can obtain some additional information from you and so that we can suggest an alternate product more in line with your needs/preferences.

              BUYER BEWARE!!! Lasted Less Than a Month!!
              I let it dry. Noticed after two days that some of it was coming off, washing away. Within a week it, whatever remained was cracking and shrinking, pulling away from the tiles and the wall. Now I have to redo my bath tub. Do not buy this product.

                  What a piece of crap! I never came across a bath sealant that hasn't cured within 24 hours. This one comes off with water after 18 hour recommended dry time and then bug holes developed in it! Now I have to scrape it off and do a double job!

                    drop in sink install
                    Worked great for my drop in sink install. It is a silicone sealant as well as adhesive. It does seem that many people are trying to use it in applications where they need just a waterproof caulk or sealant (like 100% silicone). Lays down easily on Formica countertop. Nice bead, which helps conserve material. Dries clear with this thin application within 24 hours. Easy clean up with water. No odor. Previous sink was installed over 60 years ago with plumber's putty. Hope this lasts as long!

                      It worked very well. It poured very well sealing the gaps, but it was white instead of clear. It took 2 to 3 days before it was really clear.

                      Worst Sealant Ever Used
                      Bought this to reseal the kitchen and bathroom sink. The bead is about 1/8 to 2/8 wide. Applied in room temperature above 65 F, waited at least 20 hours before contact of water. Then I noticed cracks started to show up. In order to test if the sealant is fully dried, I put some water on a point that's not crack, and after couple hours, crack showed up. After 46 hours. I used a finger to slightly wipe on the sealant with water, it came off and left some 'paint' on my finger. Totally waste of time. I had to clear out the sealant, buy another brand then redo the whole job again.

                        cracked immediately
                        re-did my tub with this stuff only to have it crack immediately. multiple coats cracked as well. finally went with the GE version 100% silicone for bath and kitchen and it worked so much better. No cracking at all.

                        Thank you for posting your feedback. We're sorry to see your low star review on DAP Kwik Seal Plus. Based on your description indicating that cracking began to appear "immediately", it would appear that there may be some instability in the surfaces that were being filled and/or the product was being applied too thickly (which can result in uneven drying/tension, leading to cracking). The competitive product you are referencing (a 100% silicone) is a completely different chemistry from DAP Kwik Seal Plus (acrylic-latex/water-based formula), which dramatically different working properties/performance characteristics. The equivalent DAP 100% silicone product would be DAP Silicone MAX. Without more details about your application conditions and project specifics, it is difficult to provide a more detailed reply in this format.

                          Don't waste your time!!!
                          This product is not worth the stress! I've used DAP caulk before and this is the WORST. After applying it, allowing it to dry properly (giving it more than the time recommended), and checking to make sure everything was okay I believe that it was ready to be used. After a quick shower I soon noticed that the edges from my tape line started to distort. It seems that the product when it gets wet starts to break down immediately. Soon after finding this, after a day it starts to build up cracks. I even reapplied it and it did the same thing. Don't waste your time, don't waste your money, don't stress yourself over a terrible product.

                            Don’t use in a bath/shower setting!!
                            Used to seal a shower door on a new build, And have had issues since day 1. Always waited 48hrs to cure before using shower, didn’t seal- shrunk and cracked- and started to deteriorate even after reapplying 4x now. Have plans with the installers to pull the doors and track and reseal with a different brand like loctite. I’ve never had this issue while using it anywhere else (bath or kitchen) but obviously isn’t up for the task on hot showers! For clarity- it’s a bathtub shower with track on bathtub rail. Never been submerged in water, bumped or anything. We’re all in utter disbelief. Water runs down inside of doors and ends up on the lower outer area of the track. Doesn’t seal worth crud.

                            Thank you for posting your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience with KWIK SEAL PLUS. As a general rule, most shower door manufacturers specify the use of 100% silicone-based sealants for their installation. KWIK SEAL is an acrylic latex-based formula (water-based) and not well suited for application between/underneath two non-porous materials (examples: metal to plastic, metal to fiberglass, metal to glazed tile/fixture), this limitation applies to any acrylic-latex (water-based) product. At your convenience, please contact DAP’s Technical Customer Service Department at 888-327-8477 so that we can obtain some additional information from you and so that we can arrange to provide you with a more appropriate kitchen and bath 100% silicone sealant.

                              Must have bad quality control. Caulked my kids shower 1 week ago. Let it cure about 30 hrs in dry winter heat. Looked at it yesterday and WOW!. Some thin spots are flaking off in pieces and some thick spots are cracking in the middle length wise! Feels brittle. Going to return it under warranty. Now I have to do it again with a different product as this batch is bad. In all honesty, this is the first DAP product that has let me down.

                              Easy to Use
                              I used this to seal around my kitchen coutertop and for my undermount sink. It was thick enough to fill in larger areas, but thin enough to spread easily with a wet paper towel. (I used a lot of paper towels) Seal stayed in place over 6 months now. No mold or mildew present. Easliy painted unlike some other caulks. Caulk gun needed for easy application.
