Chris why do you the nail heads I the nail heads uh if they've never been cocked before to seal them cuz water will get around and inside the nail head cause it to rust and cause this type of siding to swell if they've been cocked and they're you know counter sunk so deep I like to fill them up you know so you don't see that nail head so it Blends in with a siding better whoever sided this count sunk these really bad they did um they did caul them but I'm trying to hide them they just look terrible then we run into some cracks here and there that we're trying to fill but there's the one that wasn't cocked trying to build it up the cocking shrinks so you kind of got to build it up like there's one that needs to be cocked right there
