Review on Allway Tool 07182000628 Caulk Ct31 by Rodney Mendoza

This tool is also available under the Husky for Home Depot brand. This is by far the best compression tool I've found. This is my second. I put it in about 50 silicone tubes a year, and with the following tips it will be good enough for your commercial use for a $5 tool. I suggest: clean the rubber three-way tip every time you put it down. 100% silicone cannot be removed with solvent, it must be shaved off with a razor blade after it has set somewhat. That's why I'm giving up my first instrument. Here's another tip to extend the life of your stainless steel grout remover: My first one broke after about 5 bathrooms (here's a hotel staff). It's barely screwed on from the Chinese factory but works very well. My new one has a continuous ring of JB Steel Stick Epoxy around the pivot and I think this will make it a lot less prone to cracking. See photo of my modification. Enjoy!
