What tools do I need to apply the sealant?
You will need a sealant gun, a utility knife or scissors to cut the tip, and a smoothing tool or your finger to smooth the sealant.

Troubleshooting
Sealant isn't adhering properly.
Ensure the surfaces are clean and dry before applying. Use a primer if necessary.
Sealant is cracking after application.
Ensure the gap isn't too large for a single application. Apply in multiple layers if necessary, allowing each layer to cure fully.
Color doesn't match the wood.
Test the sealant on a hidden area first to check for color matching. If the color is off, consider a different sealant color or a wood filler.
Sealant is not flowing smoothly from the cartridge.
Make sure you're using a compatible sealant gun and that the tip is cut at the correct angle. Ensure the cartridge isn't expired.
