Fantastic Stuff!
My contractor did a terrible job on the gap between the tile and the tub in my bathroom remodel. I made him redo it. It wasn't any better. Three years later, it was cracking and the layers of caulk and grout were coming away from the tile and tub. After much research online, I used this GAP product to adhere an acrylic quarter round to the wall and tub ledge, then seal the top and bottom seam. It looks much better than the original job and I feel confident it will hold up a long time. It was so easy to do that I won't even mind replacing it in 5 years, if it comes to that. The photo shows the difference before I placed the last piece.

Thank you for posting your feedback. We'e sorry to see your low star review on DAP 3.0 Kitchen, Bath & Plumbing High Performance Sealant. DAP 3.0 is a fast cure, high performance sealant designed for challenging applications. As indicated on the product package label guidance, as well as supporting product literature: "Wear rubber gloves" (to protect your skin) and "Clean up excess uncured sealant from surface and tools with mineral spirits. Scrape or cut away excess cured sealant." (signaling that this is not a soap and water clean-up product). Based on your feedback, you may wish to consider an easier to use acrylic latex (soap and water clean-up formula) such as DAP KWIK SEAL ULTRA. DAP
    Nightmare to work with...
    ...never dries (still sticky one year later, interior application) and it turns yellow. Do not waste your money on any 3.0 product.

      I have installed this on several delat acrylic showers. Adhesion is great, don't try to work with much at a time, much harder to work with every minute that passes (or less). If you typically finger in caulk, don't try that with this stuff, especially if looking for a good finish, but the caulking tool scrapers and be sure to push hard to get off any extra. buy lots of paper towels.... My one complaint is not that it is hard to work with (most stuff that sticks well is), it is the fact it definitely yellows. For this price I would expect better. I put this on the delat acrylic showers (which are great), but several weeks after application (even if shower is not used) you get the yellowing. This is minimized the better your caulk job is, the more you keep the caulk recessed in the cracks, and thus obviously the better job you did installing the acrylic shower (in my case) where there are smaller cracks and the caulk "blends" into the shadow a bit more, hiding the yellowing factor. It is not crazy yellow, but definitely sticks out on bright white delta tubs. I am going to try Ecobond kitchen and bath and Red Devil to see if they yellow any less and have the same great adhesion.

        By far the most sticky caulk I have ever used. Adhered well to super smooth surface. Product is stiff, but caulk gun Model 900550 made application bearable. Do not apply without taping. Application takes patience. Not for inexperienced DIY-er. If product performs as advertised, then it will be worth the effort required to apply. Only time will tell if 5 star.

          Wish I read these reviews before purchasing
          Not my first time with a caulk gun, to squeeze the caulk out of the tube was almost impossible also its been more than 24 hours and the sealant still feels like chewing gum on the bottom of a desk, I dont understand how this will not attract dust and grime. Im most sad about having to scrape this junk off (took me almost two hours the first time) and redoing it next weekend. Why would home depot still sell a product with this many terrible reviews???

            Easy to use
            I bought the caulking to seal the tile-tub; the maintenance personal here at the apartments did not use the correct caulking so it pulled away from the tub. This caulking has not pulled away from the tub, it went on smooth and cleaned off of the areas I didn’t need it easily. It has a plastic smell but not strong or overwhelming, the bad is it stayed wet to the touch for more than 3 days. I used it on the windows, I waited 2 days before I painted over it and it took the paint without any problems. Over all I liked it and will use it again.

            This product worked very well for me.
            Easy to use and clean up afterwards. Color was as described and had a clean finish.

            Good quality product with slow drying time to allow checking completeness of seal/bead.
            Easy use. I am not clear how the new resealing system will work (I used < 1 tube). Easy to apply and clean up. Excellent filling and adhesion in difficult area. No leaks in spite of intermittent heavy water exposure.
