Is there a way to speed up the drying time of a caulking project?


Question:I caulked with tub and tile caulk around a tub and the drying time is 36 hours. Is there a way to speed up the drying time-like with a hair dryer or something?

Answers:
Don't mess with it, caulking needs to dry and harden or cure on its own.


You have it. Heat and lack of humidity will make it dry and cure faster.
put heater in bathroom turn on and shut door
In a matter of hours it should be "skinned over" sufficiently to shower. Just keep your toes and fingers out of it.
if the direction doesnt mention about fast curing...

dont mess with it...

you might end up messed
Low humidity and a fan but don't dry it too fast or it won't last long or seal good.
