Re: [DIY] Santura type caulking?

The price is all the inclusive. Even if I remove the old caulk the charge is the same

I havent heard of the brand ...why would you pay someone $200 to remove the old caulk if you could do it yourself? Are the same people who put it in going to remove it?

So we had our bathtub recaulked about 6 months ago and it's already pulling apart and looking ugly and moldy.

I was told by the guy who re caulked our tub that they have a product called Santura (sp?) that is like a "permanent" caulk (although they said it's not actually caulk) that is much better and lasts years.

I've never heard of this product and can't seem to find any references to it on the net. They want almost
$200 to remove the old caulk and apply this stuff but before I go that route, I thought I'd ask everyone if any of you have heard or used this product?
