Silicone 2+ Window & Door Caulk, 10.1 Oz. Tube, Clear, GE5000

I bought this a few years ago as a temporary fix on the skylight in my office. I set the new pieces of glass with it in 2007 and am just now resetting the entire bank of windows. The piece set with this ten years ago was just kind of jammed in with tons of this caulk until I could get around to making all the stained glass I needed. But this week when I went to tear it out it was still holding well against multiple layers of other broken glass, tar paper from previous roofs, and any number of other tiny debris that had managed to work its way in. It was ten years old and wasn't used in anything close to ideal circumstances and it was really difficult to break the seal. These skylights are far from ideal either - they are the steel framed industrial skylights that one finds in early 20th century buildings that are KNOWN for leaking. But this stuff really holds well through the Chicago seasons and just does a great job. I finished the stained glass and am now installing them properly with this caulk and am still just as thrilled as I was before. It doesn't dry *entirely* clear, however. It isn't glassy clear, but cloudy clear. It does blend well with whatever color is against it though. Will use it to replace other skylights as I redo them. I included some images so you can see the color of the bead of caulk and the word application. Just great stuff.

Date Expired product received. Very old product.

good stuff, has never failed me yet.

I used this product to seal the roof of my house and it worked great, it stopped all the leaks

I haven’t had a chance to try this product, because when I was ready to use it, I couldn’t figure out how to break the foil seal. After much frustration, I finally Googled it and found out it cannot be opened without a caulking gun! I understand that people who caulk regularly would know that, but if you’re like me, and you’re caulking something for the first time, how are you supposed to know? If this information had just been in the listing details, I could have bought one when I ordered the caulk. I’m sure the product is awesome, but I guess I’ll be waiting a few days to find out.
