Default Window sealer/caulk

Hello, we are looking to touch up the seals around the windows on our 26/19. Front and back specifically. We don't want to pull them out or anything like that, we would just like to give it a new bead/touch up. Can anyone recommend a good product? Just a little confused by all the options. Vertical vs horizontal. I know we should never use silicon. Thanks!

Take a look at this thread, which may help.

The real answer is to join the Forum ($12 a year) so that you can review the dozens of posts concerning how to do it and what product will work.

Thanks Bill. We're gearing it up for sale so I may not have any other questions but I will indeed recommend this site to new owner(s).
Thanks

Default Pro flex

We used the pro flex caulk from amazon, very easy to work with .We used it it around our windows after removing the old caulk. Very satisfied with the results!

Proflex is the stuff to use. You can reseal on top of old proflex if necessary (usually you want to remove the bulk of the old stuff first). Silicone is much more difficult to work with. Typically you cannot seal on top of cured silicone, and removal of silicone is not an easy task. Any solvent that removes silicone also dissolves the paint, including the Krystal Kote (did I spell it right, probably not... but you get the idea).
