Customer Reviews for Swan 10.2 oz. Tahiti Grey Silicone Caulk

This product went on smoothly, and looks better than any caulking project I've ever taken on.

Swan has gone through several different vendors of caulk since they stopped offering their own brand. The first tube I bought some years ago was from Silicones Unlimited (despite the name, it was a latex caulk). Home Depot is showing the caulk here as from Red Devil, but Swan hasn't used them in years. What you get now is from Premier Industrial Supply, their XtraBond 250 silicone caulk. It's hard to say what a "matching" color would be, given that Swanstone is multi-colored, but I will say that the XtraBond in "Sienna", what you get for Bermuda Sand, is not a bad match for the Swanstone. It isn't exactly the same as the old SU caulk, nor of the original Swanstone branded version, but it's perfectly acceptable and blends in with the material. The caulk itself is fine and easy to work with. I was pleased to see that it is 100% silicone, is an anti-microbial formula and is even suitable for commercial food preparation.

It's a rather frustrating to pay extra for custom caulk that is supposed to match the Swanstone material only to find that they use one color caulk for several different Swanstone colors. In our case this was not that good of a match - the caulk had a slightly pinkish hue compared with the Swanstone material. Fortunately there is not that much light in the shower so it's hard to see the color difference. I also had a Corian product installed by a professional installer around the same time - their caulk matched almost exactly, so not sure why Swanstone can't have a better selection of caulks. I cannot really recommend this product for this Swanstone color, except that it is better than using off the shelf white, almond or clear.

Caulk worked great. I squirted out a sample and it looked white to me, but when it dried it was a light grey color which i wanted and needed to caulk my bathroom vanity top. The grey colored Vanity top looks better with the grey caulking than with white. I do have a shine to it.

Good quality silicon caulk, but was hoping it would be opaque instead of translucent.

It went on well. It matched the bone shower kit better than anything else we bought. It's slightly transparent so it looks nice when dry.

Good application and looks good.

So glad I found this color. Tiles are gray and it was perfect. Seems much better than the old tan colored acrylic caulk that took many days labor to get out. From now on only silicone caulk for me.

Good color match, tooled easily

The product is what I wanted....unfortunately, it took 3 orders (and a call from the store to the warehouse on the 3rd) to get the right product.

I was very impressed with the product. I got the quality seal I was looking for but with a low grout-like sheen. It’s a little more difficult to apply being silicone but if you use masking tape you can get a professional result with no clean up required. Mark in Las Vegas

I found this caulk to flow great and smooth out well for a nice finish. In one project I taped on either side of the seam and I won’t do that again. When removing the tape it did disturb the nice bead I had down and made the project not look good. In subsequent projects I applied this product with my air-compressor driven caulk gun and then smoothed with a hand tool. This resulted in a very professional finish. Would definitely buy again.

Glad to finally find a grey color. It is light grey but works much better than white

Great product

Great application. Dries very well! It matches my tile too, definitely a plus

Just what I was looking for and needed.

This silicone is very good. I used it to stick to the tile surface in the bathroom and it worked very well.

Great removable nozzle and quality caulk. Only difficulty was cleaning out the plastic nozzle as I only used half the caulk but i was able to clean it pretty well with a straw and some paper towels. Pipe cleaner may also work

I bought this to re-caulk my bathtub and Corian tub surround. I went online and did a good amount of research to find this product. To tell you the truth, I was dreading it and procrastinating. Now that we are 'staying home' due to the Covid 19, I had no excuse. It took a lot of time to remove the old caulk! The Swan XTRA BOND 250 silicone went on smoothly. It is thick to and I could have probably cut a larger hole off the tip. Bottom line, I would use it again. I will see how it holds up. I hope it lasts forever!

The bone color was perfect. Please stock it in your stores. I really liked the locker delivery, too.

Easy to use flow rate. Perfect color match.

Worked great, easy to apply!

Beautiful product. Worked great on shower door.

I installed this caulk at the seem of my shower wall and floor in order to replace caulk that wascracking. It's been in place for about a month and seems to work well. Would have been helpful to have had a color palate from this company. What is Tahiti Gray? Well, it's dark, charcoal gray.

Great match!
