Kelly Moore 45 yr - Flashes
Big Stretch- No flashing but is expensive
Kwal 45 yr- flashes
Alex Plus- Doesn't tool well but no flashing and is too thick!
Alex - waste of time

So what is an affordable product that doesnt flash yet is toolable?

XRay, I use the tools that God gave me - my fingers; I apply, smooth with finger, wipe excess with a clean wet terry clothe, then smooth again with finger. This works for me. I use Alex Plus or an equivilent product with no problems.

I cant remember the name, but there is a company that has a new caulking that claims to not flash I saw it in a trade mag. Sorry I dont know the name, but there is one out there. Not sure how it tools.
