Troubleshooting
Sealant is smearing or not smoothing cleanly
Ensure you are using the correct trowel shape for the joint. Try lightly moistening the trowel edge or adjusting the angle of application. Clean the trowel frequently during use.
Trowels feel sticky or difficult to clean
Clean the trowels immediately after use with a damp cloth. For dried-on sealant, use a plastic scraper or mild solvent as recommended for the specific sealant type, then wash with soap and water.
Difficulty selecting the right trowel shape
Refer to the markings on the trowels and match them to the type of joint you are working on. Experiment on a scrap piece if unsure. The kit provides various edge profiles for different outcomes.
