I’m
very impressed by how good my two (half British) (half Sudanese) sibling
friends are at home improvements.
Though
their tiling is a bit off here and there, perhaps due to old crooked walls,
their drywalling and painting is simply immaculate.
In
comparison, my own attempts at caulking are so sloppy.
Last
winter I caulked a bit around where the wainscoting separated from the walls in
order to cut down on heat leakage, and I just smeared caulk everywhere when I tried
to smooth it out with a wet cloth like you're supposed to.
Too,
a few weeks ago, I was wiping down windows in preparation for putting up
plastic on them for winter, and I noticed a couple glass panes had wood flaking
away that opened up gaps where cold could come in.
So,
I took out my unused caulk and went to seal that up, and the next thing you know,
when I wiped it, caulk was all smearing up onto the glass.
