Black decorators caulk - does it exist?

Can't you combine this with the laser toner thread and make your own?

Dunno - you'll have to ask a black decorator!

Seriously though, the white stuff can be painted any colour you like, once it has set.

My mother's kitchen has black upstands and they have some from of black sealer around them. Dunno whether it's caulk or silicone - possibly the latter as ISTR it looks shinier than caulk.

Why are you wary of silicone? Could you perhaps paint the caulk black?

You can certainly get black acrylic sealants which will probably be tougher and less slimy than silicone, and paintable if that was what you were worried about.

See:

Just a heads-up, but this side of the Pond they sell both paintable and non-paintable stuff (I have no idea why). UK might be different of course, but it might be worth checking the fine print for what it says about paintability.

You could splash water about the kitchen with gay abandon like my Missus does - the stuff would be black soon enough - with mould.

dries shiny - it may just be the ticket?

Because I can't paint over silicone and that'll cause problems with the inevitable smudges etc. where I've put too much on. Also because you don't seem to be able to get own-brand black silicone and this effectively makes it 3 - 4 times the price of the white/ natural stuff.

On the other hand, if it's all I can get then I'll have to go with it.

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember pete saying something like:

Mmm... sticky prints.

You can get *acrylic* FRAME sealer., as opposed to decorators caulk, in a wide variety of colours. As far as I can tell, its pretty much the same stuff. Decorators caulk, by definition, is used under decoration..;-)

It is possible to paint over silicone. At least some silicone, for example:
