If you’re planning to caulk around your home’s windows and doors to keep drafts out of your house, you’ll need to buy a caulk gun. Working with a tube of caulk is a headache unless you’re just filling in a tiny area. You can buy a caulk gun at a hardware store or paint store for less than $15. The more you spend, the better the gun will help you turn out a professional looking job. Ask the salesperson at the hardware store to show you how to operate the gun and to help you compare the features on various models.
Choose a gun with features that will make it easier to use. Examples: Some guns come with a handy blade inside the handle grip for snipping off the tip of the caulk tube and others have a wire probe built in to help you penetrate the seal in the caulking tube.
