After removing the old caulk, clean the area thoroughly. Use water and a disinfectant to scrub away any dirt, grime, mold, or mildew. Rinse the area well to remove cleaning solution residue and wipe off any excess water. As a final cleaning step, wipe the seam or joint with rubbing alcohol to eliminate any remaining residue or film. It is crucial for the area to be completely clean and dry to ensure proper adhesion of the new caulk.
