is it bad if i use "all-purpose acrylic latex caulk" for construction daily without washing my hands?

Nov 06, 2007 by Jonny | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

in other words, nothing bad will happen if i use this product about 2-3 hours a day, every day without washing my hands right? if yes, for example then, not that im looking forward to doing it but, i could spread this caulk all over me for the rest of the week and nothing bad is going to happen. when i say bad. i mean not required to go to the doctor or worse.


Acrylic/latex caulk will not hurt your skin if that's what you are asking. I wouldnt suggest that you rub it into your eyes, or swallow it tho, lol. -- I'll amend this to add -- it won't hurt as long as you're not allergic to latex.... most people aren't, but for those that are, they need to be careful handling it.

And to prevent the spread of germs and bacteria, you REALLY should be washing your hands often, lol.... you can even get 'waterless' soaps, like Germ-X, or Goop, etc, where you don't need any water, and they clean pretty well. I keep a container in my service vehicle so I can clean up, even when water is not available on site. (I also keep a bottle or two of water on hand)

Have Fun


As long as you are not allergic to latex, I see no problem with its daily use. My painter's workers use this product daily and have never had a negative reaction.


I don't get it... Are you saying that you are thinking of working on a job-site day in and day out, and not wash your hands at all? Yes, that would be bad. If you do not get sick from germs, you probably will ingest some chemicals and get sick that way...

If you are asking about allergic reaction to the caulking - no idea. That depends on the caulking, you, and any other things you might have touched. For example, most people are not allergic to Latex. They are allergic to the trace chemicals that are on the inside of the glove from the making and are then taped against the hand...

If you are using caulking 2-3 hours a day invest in some of the blue Latex Safegrip gloves by MicroFlex

If you ever decide to wash your hands use the "orange" soap that you can get at auto-parts stores, the stuff with the grit, and then wash with normal soap...

I just finished a tile job in the tub. now to finish, should I use silicone or latex caulk?

Oct 23, 2008 by reporter | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)

why or why not?
between the tile and the tub!


Most definitely a latex and not silicone. Right out of the tube, a silicone based caulk is not water soluble wheras latex is. For best results, cut the end of the tube so that the hole is only about 1/16 inch or so. Then, apply the caulking with the tip of the tube as perpendicular to your work as possible then tilt the tube back toward the direction that you are going to make your bead. Try and use only as much as you need to fill the seam. Keep a cup filled with water and dampen a cloth with it. Wet your finger and run along the bead and you will see a nice transition between your tub and tile. Try not to get your work too wet but just enough that your finger cleans the excess caulking. Use the wet rag and water to clean your finger throughout your job. A clean looking job is almost impossible to do with silicone. It is very hard to clean up too.

Will enamel spray paint stick to latex caulk?

Nov 13, 2006 by GW | Posted in Other - Home & Garden

I need to paint a fixture on my wall that is sealed to the wall with latex cault.


Sounds like you need to test the paint on the caulk. Since you are using spray paint, why not spray a small puddle of paint on a piece of paper and use a cheap artists brush to paint some of it on the caulk? Paint it on in an out of the way place and let it dry. Does it stick? If it does, you are home free. If not, back to the drawing board.

Good luck with your painting project.

how do you get latex caulk off of brick?

Dec 29, 2007 by beach bum | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

My painter was very sloppy around the door jambs.


Use a wire brush and gently scrub the brick.

where do i find green latex caulk to match my aluminum trim on my house?

May 26, 2006 by santaman4 | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs



There is now available a product called color match caulking. Check with a local paint store, such as Sherwin Williams, Valspar, Glass & Paint, etc. It is basically like mixing paint, they use a base caulking and mix and inject colorant to match your choice. Works great.
