and will separate and crack but I'm going to be using a towel sponge I always keep a bucket of water with me that way cuz I'm going to be rinsing it out all the time cuz I'm using it for a couple purposes to uh keep my hands clean any excess Cafe you I'm be wiping on here but it in order to get really nice Corners really nice beads you always need your pads your fingers you're working with to be wet and um if you're trying to um COA or um caul and layout you're caulking with dry fingers you're just not going to have a lot of success I also use it to keep my um gun tip clean you'll typically get some run-ons and stuff on the the end of your gun and that's just kind of going to make a mess on your surface so I'm typically wiping my um gun corner off before I start my bead I'm going to start up here just going to do some Corners you can typically this um stuff doesn't dry super fast so you can caul this whole door jam with your caulking before you lay it out and you're not going have to worry about it drying or coagulating I'm just going to put a small bead on there I typically just cut a 45° angle on my gun and I don't want the hole to be too big cuz I don't want my bead of cocking to be too large
