EASY CAULKING

Tear, squeeze and toss. That's how easy it is to use GE Caulk Singles.

The single-use disposable packages of caulk make the days of messy caulking with bulky squeeze-tubes a thing of the past. Use them to apply caulk around molding and trim, fix worn-out caulk around fixtures or seal gaps and cracks before painting.

Singles can be used with one hand and dispensed with no tools, leaving little or no waste in the package. The best part: Unlike caulk guns, they are small enough to fit in vanities, drawers and even your purse.

Available at Lowe's Home Improvement stores, Ace Hardware, True Value and Do It Best, caulk singles come in white paintable acrylic or white or clear waterproof silicone.

Cost ranges from $2.29 to $2.99 per 1.25-ounce packages. Details: CaulkSingles.com.
