    Teak caulking tool

    Amazon.co.uk I sourced this tool a few months ago and thought I’d share my thoughts having now trimmed every single black caulking line on a SQ58 in less than 2 hours without the need for sanding at all! Bathing platform, cockpit, side decks and fly. I’d researched and watched many video’s...
