    About this product

    Getting old, hardened caulk out of the joint

    New caulk will not hold over old caulk, so the first hour of any recaulking job is removal. The Homax Caulk Remover Tool has a sharp, angled tip that digs into cracks and corners and works the dried bead loose. You move it forward and back along the joint rather than prying at it.

    The tip also scrapes away the thin film that old caulk leaves on the tile and the tub edge. It is made for hard surfaces such as a tub or a tile wall. The rubber grip, in yellow and black, gives your hand something solid to hold during a long run around a tub.
