I had to replace a painted poplar brickmold due to rotting at the bottom. I put in new vinyl brickmold and it is now primed with BM exterior primer with mildewcide added. At this point, I need to seal the crack between the vinyl siding channel and the vinyl brickmold. The molding is white, the vinyl siding is a dull military green. What kind of caulk should be used for this vinyl application? After the sealing I plan to apply a finish of white exterior.
Caulking used between brickmold and siding?

Paintable Acrylic latex caulk for exterior. Pliable, expands and contracts well.

Urethane caulk. Hard to find. but worth it.
The blue tube was $7 five years ago (aka bitch-a-thane). That could be good for building trains, buses, autos. Or even fire trucks.
I still have jeans with Urethane caulk on them.
