Aux Room: Caulk Windows

Volunteers Needed High-Value Limited-Time Projects ANYONE Can Do

The windows I installed need to be caulked. There is caulk that I think is still good on the table in the aux room along with a gun and some useful tools of mine, as shown below. The intent is not just to seal, but the caulk provides a bit of cushion between the glass and the frame. The tolerances are smaller than I intended, so getting caulk down in between the frame and glass may take a bit of effort. Both sides of both windows need to be done eventually, but feel free to do just part if you want.

Addendum: This does need to be done eventually, but there is no rush, and nothing else depends upon it.

Caulk tube had a cut in it. Had to throw it out. A clear caulk would be best. Can pick some up.

Door and window caulk is usually white, which will match the adjacent border here and match with what we used on the other windows. I have some to spare from personal work that I will bring in. (Not that the color is critical at all.)

I actually found I had an unopened tube, which may be helpful; you can cut a smaller hole to get caulk into the cracks more easily.
