What happens here
Immediately after applying the sealant bead, use a gloved finger to smooth out the Lexel along the joint. This action helps to press the sealant firmly into the gap, ensuring maximum adhesion and filling any small irregularities. Smoothing also creates a clean, professional finish. The presenter uses his gloved finger to effectively tool the sealant, reinforcing its purpose of keeping out bugs, air, and wind.
Goal: Ensure proper adhesion and create a clean finish for the applied sealant.
