Seamless Wax is easy to take and use, and it can be applied on both sides of the gap to isolate it. After filling the seams, just use a scraper to clean off the remaining material.

Whether it is a single tube or a double tube of caulking agent, it will be equipped with a glue gun nozzle, which can be squeezed directly into the seam. During construction, the frequency of pressing the glue gun and the speed of movement of the glue gun should be gentle. Don't be too fast when applying glue. Only by being even and slow can the glue produced be smooth and balanced.

Using a caulking ball to trim the beautiful seam effect can leave micro-grooves in the gaps between ceramic tiles to prevent scratches caused by daily life. And tear off the textured paper affixed to the ceramic tiles to avoid the sealant and sealant on the textured paper.The grout in the tiles dries and sticks together.
