Sashco Big Stretch Acrylic Latex High Performance Caulking Sealant, White, 12pack, each 10.5 oz Cartridge

My company uses this product regularly. Easy to work, easy to clean up. Only problem with it is that it collects dust if it’s not painted.

I replaced the lap siding on my house last year and we used 4 cases of Big Stretch White to seal the exposed seams. It applies and is workable as you would expect with any caulk and it was as easy as any other. Filling gaps as wide as 1/2" (possibly more) in one pass was uneventful.+ Ability to take paint - Where this stuff really excels is in its ability to take paint. This isn't silicone so its not like its prone to paint failure but Big Stretch doesn't seem to expand and contract in a way that makes the paint chip or crack over time. I have no idea how they manage that, but the painted caulk on my house has held up extremely well.+ Bulging and shrinking - I live in a desert so its very hot in the summer and very cold and snowy in the winter. Even with extreme temperatures in the summer Big Stretch doesn't bulge or shrink. The same in sub zero temperatures.I wasn't going to review caulk but this stuff is truly impressive. If you used a lot of caulk in your life and you've struggled haveing to come back over and over to reapply due to shrinking, particularly on exteriors surfaces. This is by far the best product I have ever come across and I have laid plenty caulk (no pun intended!)Sure you can by twice as much cheap caulk for the price but how much is your time worth? Do you really want to be reapplying caulk every year and then touching up the paint.

This stuff is amazing! I have used all the so called best caulks and ALL of them fail. This stuff has been up for almost 2 years and all all of the caulk is doing its job. I used it to fill the end gaps between my Certainteed cement board siding and this stuff is known for shrinking back terribly! Yes its stretched but its still making waterproof joints!

I wont know if stretches until we get an earthquake. I can report that despite laying a fat fillet, the product deflated to a depressing concave. I waited two weeks before painting, not sure if the shrinky dink was done. Accepted paint. Indoor application, baseboard along a wooden stairwell. Other reviewers mentioned the shrinkage, but I thought they were overinflating the issue. Shrinkage is a real thing. I almost wanted to try a second lay

I am very picky on details, I have always just bought the cheapest calk at Home depot thinking they were all about the same. I have several rent houses and occasionally use a lot of calk. Matt Risinger has been talking about Sashco products for a long time and I finally decided to try big stretch, Its a little more money but well worth it. No cracking or going back over it again later. I was so impressed I gave away all my other calks and silicone.Excellant product, zero complaints, big time saver from having to go back over cracks and gaps.
