SO MUCH MOLD!...WEIRDEST CAULK JOB I'VE EVER DONE!

What happens here

The presenter prepares to apply new caulk using a tube of DAP 3.0, a 10-year mold and mildew-resistant silicone caulk suitable for kitchen and bath. He places the caulk tube into a caulk gun. Using a utility knife, he carefully cuts the tip of the caulk tube at a 45-degree angle, about halfway down, to control the bead size. He then applies a continuous, smooth bead of caulk along the taped line, using the caulk gun and guide tool. He notes that getting a perfectly smooth bead is crucial for a professional look.

Goal: The presenter loads a tube of DAP 3.0 silicone caulk into a caulk gun, cuts the tip at a 45-degree angle, and applies a smooth bead along the taped line.
