Dap 08647 9.8 fl oz Dow Corning® Bronze Silicone Sealant

Ignore the previous review about back packaging. It was a user error, because the user didn't know that almost every caulk gun has a needle on it to puncture the inner seal before use. If you don't puncture the seal, you are going to blow out the back of your tube of caulking or sealant. Read the instructions people.

Was having some odd curing problems, but was able to get DAP LiveChat support on a Saturday, and better yet, I believe they identified the problem! (I'd recommend using this particular silicone outdoors or in a well ventilated room, as it has quite an odor while curing.) Unrelated to this, I have a suggestion for DAP: Put shelf life and/or expiration date info on your tubes, please. I was recently burned by trying to use an expired tube of silicone from a competing brand, and would hate to have this happen with DAP. LiveChat was able to tell me I was well within the 2 year shelf life after decoding the date code on the tube.

How do you remove this product from shower area? Got the bulk off but chasing the residue.

I used this product on the back of a large bathroom mirror to help to hold and cushion the mirror against the wall. It seemed to have worked but now I am being told that was a bad idea as the silicone will damage the coating on the back of the glass. Is this true?

I have had two of the 2.8 oz tubes of this product. They were purchased at separate times from separate stores. Both tubes have had flat seal at the end of the tube come open. Silicone has spilled everywhere on both occasions. It made a huge mess and slowed down my project. Customers have an expectation that the packaging of this product will work. This was a miserable failure. I will not be purchasing it again. #losingacustomer
