Woman Tapes Spoon to Caulk Gun for Game-Changing Hack
If you’ve ever worked with a caulk gun before, you know it can get particularly messy. As you work your way down a wall or a corner, the caulk comes out and dribbles down the wall, and it falls into the floor, onto the gun, and everywhere for that matter. It can be such a maddening thing to have to work with, but if you’re sick of having to deal with caulk in the first place and need a workaround that can make it a much simpler affair, this hack might be right up your alley.
TikToker @product.idea took to the platform to share this stroke of genius, which you’ll definitely appreciate. She started by grabbing a spoon — an average, everyday spoon — and attaching it to the end of the caulk gun. Stay with us here, even if it seems like it’s getting weird. There’s a reason for this, we promise.
The spoon, now attached to the caulk gun, will help to catch some of the caulk that falls off the tip, and it will also ease on to the wall much more effortlessly. That means you don’t have to keep scooping it up with your fingers and starting over, getting messed up as you go.
You’ll have a nice, even, straight line to work with, and it’ll make what might be a lengthy job a much more tolerable one. And anything that can help you breeze through a job like this one is something worth trying. So next time you’re caulking, grab you a spoon and see how much it helps you! We’re willing to be it’s a total game-changer, right?
