I used to own a resurfacing company. When we removed caulk, especially the type that is specifically for bath and kitchen which has a tendency to cure very hard we would use a heat gun on a low setting to soften the caulk first. It is very important to keep the gun moving so as not to scorch the tub especially if the tub is fiberglass. Once the caulk was removed we would spray the area with a 20% solution of bleach and water. After 10 minutes or so we would spray the area with denatured alcohol which helps moisture that got under the tile to evaporate more quickly. Place a box fan blowing on the tub for an hour and you'ready to caulk. Most people wonder why the caulk separates from the tub or tile. To avoid this fill the tub 3/4 full of water prior to caulking to cause it to settle, then caulk. Don't drain the tub until the caulk has dried.
@@HokageHustle88 I think that the word 'settle' was used with regards to the bathtub, rather than the caulk, and in a sense of 'to settle' - 'to drop down'. The water is meant to weigh down the bathtub causing it to drop a tiny bit so that the newly applied caulk is used to this sort of stretch and won't peel away with bath use. At least that's the way I understood it. Hope this helps.
My takeaway from the video and comments. Mild heat from a heat gun. Multi-tool, followed by scraper, if necessary. Clean with diluted bleach and brush. Use alcohol to remove moisture. Fill tub with water before caulking in case the tub settles a bit with weight in it. It all makes sense. #1 rule in home improvement: Use the proper tools and methods to make the job as easy as possible, or, as they say, work smart, not hard. 😁
I just bought a multi-tool for my business and wouldn't have thought about using it to remove old caulk, but it looks like it did a good job. Anything that makes this job easier is a good thing!
This is just the video I needed since I am helping my parents with their house. They are getting older and I am helping them with the little things. Seeing this video I will buy an oscillating tool since I used to use a utility knife to cut caulking. The oscillating tool method is much more safe than what I used to do and can get faster results I will look into a cordless one like the one you have in the video. Thank you.
Thank you!!! for a wonderfully TO THE POINT video. I'm on my way to Harbor Freight to buy this tool. and now I know silicone caulking. I don't want to have to do this job again for many years.
Great video - I liked how you covered the different options to do the job. Have been wanting to purchase a multi-purpose tool and now I have a good justifiable reason...Thanks
Thanks for sharing this information. I was about to start a difficult task, of repairing a shower enclosure. And a bathtub enclosure. I was dreading this job. After seeing this video I knew that there was light at the end of the tunnel. I picked up a multi speed, multi tool from Harbor Freight for about $35.00. It made short work of the grout removal. Thanks again for valuable information, it was very helpful in my repair efforts. GF1 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😎
In addition to metal scrapers: Plastic putty scrapers - Popsicle sticks - cut tip for a flat edge. Back and forth with pressure may get the last caulk bits hanging on without scratching surfaces.
Multitool is fine but FIRST lay down 2" strips of painter's tape right up to the edge of the exposed caulking that you're wanting to remove on tub walls and tub itself. This is cheap insurance against any scratches on your tub or tile made by the multitool. An extra step well worth it.
@@dpky7333 yeah as a caulker myself, no one uses a multi tool, it’s unbelievably reckless and would cause so much damage. Perhaps for some sections it would be ok, but not around baths or on tiles that would Mark easily
To save a lot of effort and to save breathing in the bleach fumes, mildew can be removed very effectively by folding up toilet tissue and placing it along the mildew line then carefully pour bleach onto the tissue, leave it overnight and remove it the next day, all the mildew will be gone so long as the bleach was in contact, that's what the paper is for, this can even save the need to put new caulking in at all.
tip: boil a tea kettle of water. pour the hot water into the corners onto the caulk. this will soften it beforehand and make it a lot easier. be sure to dry it well after, of course.
I found just a simple craft knife either side and it pulls out in one piece no mess ,all done in minutes ready to caulk and no damage to bath or decor.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video, bout to recaulk my tub & was thinking, "there's gotta be a better way" 😄 and I already own one a porta-cable oscillating tool. 👍👍
For the women out there that don’t have these tools pour alcohol on a rag and let it sit on the caulking for a few hours it softens it easily take a spoon or knife and scrap it off I just did it and it works perfectly
Buy some silicon remover first guys before you start with the mechanical brute force! It's cheap and makes the job so much easier. Can't believe in two years no-one had mentioned this.
Wish I had a tool like this. My spouse is a truck driver and never home so when I redid all the caulking in the bathroom it took me forever to remove the old stuff. 😭 My dumb ass never looked into tools before doing it. Now that it's all done I find out about special tools that make it easier . Typical of me. 😂
Harbor freight, 15$.. is a lot louder than the expensive ones are but for a here and there use tool is well worth the money.. youll spend more on blades for it than the actual tool itself.. and if not a person who will use tools every day while your there pick up a 15$ corded drill, 20$ random orbit sander and a 7$ work light and you still wouldn't have spent as much as you would have buying the oscillating tool itself at a big box store...
Good for you to take this job on yourself instead of waiting for your husband to return! So what? You did the whole thing without a multi-tool. Even more admirable! You did it!
Caulk my nemesis Just did this job it took 3 days. (I let it dry a day before caulking) Caulk came out in tiny pieces... one very severe cut w/utility knife. Goo gone & hair dryer did soften a bit. No drip caulk gun way better. One more tub to go. I will be trying my multi tool.Thanks from this handy gal
Great & to the point Just got a multi tool and wondered if its safe to use on tub/shower for caulk removal. You answered that real well. Great point on the hand scraper as it being the same as the multi tool, albeit much slower. Now to the tub
First put on gloves, eyewear, cover bottom of tub with old sheet (you’ll likely be working while in the tub at some point, cover drain. Rubber head hammer, box cutter or screwdriver. Position s/driver gently tap with hammer. My issue was quite different from the one depicted here (a no brainer). Space between tub and tile edge was about 1/8 to 1/4 in and in some places 1 inch deep. Get caulking rope (similar to weather stripping) Once caulk is removed, stuff the space with the rope, apply caulk with gun. This video really does not take into consideration troubleshooting. But if the tub and lowest tile meet, this seems to be OK. In short, it ain’t fun. Like to see some youtube stars tackle a practical and sometimes daunting problem. ⚒
There is no easy way to remove old silicone caulking, its basically being patient taking your time using razor blade as flat as possible & slowly taking off inch at a time not to rush by trying to take off foot at a time, the idea is not to try & scratch up the tub surface..
Stanley knife with a good blade, I can do it in 3 minutes. That multi tool is going to damage the tub especially if fiberglass.... wipe with denatured alcohol. Let dry , recaulk
Lucky me! I'd already been struggling for hours with 1/2" thick caulk--the walls of my two tub/showers are 1/2" thick stone, not tile--when I found this video. I hadn't made it even 1/4 of the way around the first shower. I stumbled into a sale on the DeWalt 20v cordless multi-tool kit yesterday, when I went to a local tool shop to pick up an item the salesman erroneously told me was in stock when I called the day before. I already own a 20v DeWalt drill, same battery, so that made the decision easy. The kit comes with a tool, battery, charger, cut guide, bag, and two general purpose bits, but no scraper, so I added a 2-pack (one rigid, one flexible) of Diablo scrapers. Thanks for the tips! I think the second bath will go more quickly than the first did.
I ended up buying a corded Harbor Freight Bauer multi-tool. I have 4 Ridgid batteries, but I've read that their brushless multi-tool has a notoriously bad switch. I bought a whole pack of assorted cheapo blades from Amazon for around $30. Let's see how long they last.
How about a layer of Gorrilla tape where caulking meets the fiberglass on a shower . The gorilla tape is very thick and could prevent marking on the fiberglass .
I dont recommend using the multi tool and a scrapper. Ended up with alot of scratches on the porcelain and now i have to paint the tub or replace because the touch up porcelain kit i tried isnt the same shade of white.
If the tub companies made their tubs with a longer lip (maybe up to 1 1/2” to 2”) behind the wall tile, AND made the flat part of the tub at a nice 45 degree angle, from the lip for just a half inch to 3/4”, then there wouldn’t need to be ANY caulk at that joint, as the water would just run down into the tub! I can’t believe they haven’t figured that out in all these past 100+ years of tub-making! Geez!
Cool.. We were looking at these 3 in 1 caulking tools.. I'll use my makita multi tool.!! But, what's the best way.to spread the caulking? When I worked foe a painting company we just use our caulking gun and finger and a wet rag..
By using this method, I worry that I would damage the tiles or tub surface. Mineral spirits to soften the caulk (esp. silicone) with good ventilation (working in small sections) along with a razor seems like a better way to go and less likely to damage anything. 🤔
Well caulk comes in many forms. Silicone, acrylic, rubber. In bathrooms you use silicone caulk because the bathroom gets wet. For painters and walls and such you use things like acrylic caulk. So yes we call it caulk because it is we just don’t say what form of caulk unless we need to specify

Thank you for this! :)
The water in tub makes so much sense!
What do mean by fill the tub with 3/4 water? I'm a little confused how that helps the caulk settle as it's on top of the water in the tub

I used cotton balls that I unravel and do the same thing. They stay wet a lot longer..
I cut a cotton painters rag into strips...
Glad to see other people know this trick...
Works so well...
Watched your video, went to harbor freight and bought their cordless multi tool.... done tub and shower in seconds for under $40.
Does the $40 include cost of the multi-tool? If not, would you mind sharing how much you spent for the multi-tool?
Thank you Sam, i always used a razor blade and labor, i always thought the multi tool would scratch the tub surface, thank you
Clicks on the "That Was Easy!" Button!!! Thank you for this!!!

Make sure to let it dry before replying caulk if you do that. You don't want to lock in moisture.
edit: nice :)
@@Treegrower of course, and edited. thanks.
Good point! Thanks
of course!
Y don't just use hot water from the tub..?

Be careful not to protruding the mechanical tool too deep into the tile, may cause damage to the tanking

Buy some silicon remover first guys before you start with the mechanical brute force! It's cheap and makes the job so much easier. Can't believe in two years no-one had mentioned this.

I looked at that but it was not for fiberglass or acrylic tubs

I used a utility knife to scrape off it came up really quick
👍 Thumps up I will have to buy one of this. It’s simply fabulous.
There are non-metal, non-marring scrapers for multi-tools available.
Just a tip on cleaning before caulking. Use vinegar to kill the mold, bleach after for color purposes.
after I saw this video, I grabbed my multi-tool. it works so well!!!!!!!
I just keep finding new uses for my oscillating tool! Good video.
Milti tool a great idea, I'm using tomorrow.
If you have black mold on your caulking like in the video, make sure to wear a mask while removing it, you don't want to be breathing in that stuff!
Love your low, slight out of metronome speech. I believe you could garner 100,000’s of views if you provided a vid on constructing a coffin (s).

Yours sounds like a crooked tub and a nightmare. Put a level on your tub and see what it shows!!
Thanks, I didn't know about backing rod. I have a big gap on one end of my tub and the caulk separates from the tub almost every year.
I used a hairdryer to do this job very quickly.
Thanks for the tip, the multi tool is a great all around tool. Great use for it.👍
This wins the "Nastiest Tub Award"!!!
If you have old caulk that's really stubborn this method can easily damage your tub's finish as you struggle to loosen the old caulk
Man you are good with the chalk
Spray the caulk with WD40 first and leave it for 30 minutes and it'll come off a hell of a lot easier.
Going to give this a try

Really informative video. I need to add a multitool to my tool cabinet next time I go into town.
A multitool would be a great addition. Amazon has some great deals on multitool blade assortments at some great prices. GF1 👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😁😁😁😎
I used to use my scraper to try and remove caulk. Those days are long gone since using my oscillating tool. It cuts thru caulk like butter.
EXCELLENT VIDEO! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I learned a lot.
I was expecting an IED as the last method in your video for removing the caulk.
I would be afraid it would scratch the tiles or tub. I realize you said it hasn’t caused an issue so I appreciate the video
You can protect the tile and tub with painter's tape.
I used isopropyl alcohol to remove caulking holding pedestal sink to the wall and floor- worked immediately.
I needed this. Thank you
How about a layer of Gorrilla tape where caulking meets the fiberglass on a shower . The gorilla tape is very thick and could prevent marking on the fiberglass .
Good video...
I've been putting off getting a multi-tool, those little things, have alot of good uses. 😮
I wish I had this tool. It took me hours to remove the previous owners horrible caulking job in my bathtub.
Love when he says it doesn’t matter what brand and whips out a RYOBI 😂😂😂😂
I dont recommend using the multi tool and a scrapper. Ended up with alot of scratches on the porcelain and now i have to paint the tub or replace because the touch up porcelain kit i tried isnt the same shade of white.
The right tool for the right job
If the tub companies made their tubs with a longer lip (maybe up to 1 1/2” to 2”) behind the wall tile, AND made the flat part of the tub at a nice 45 degree angle, from the lip for just a half inch to 3/4”, then there wouldn’t need to be ANY caulk at that joint, as the water would just run down into the tub! I can’t believe they haven’t figured that out in all these past 100+ years of tub-making! Geez!
Makes sense to me.
Well then start your own business making tubs and be a millionaire
I couldn't agree with you more. Open the joint up so it can dry out. The worst thing you can do with water is trap it.
Wd40 works wonders.
I need that multi scraper. Thank you
I heard Lorena Bobbitt was the best at removing caulk.

Hahahahhahaah

Cool..
We were looking at these 3 in 1 caulking tools..

But, what's the best way.to spread the caulking?
When I worked foe a painting company we just use our caulking gun and finger and a wet rag..
Thanks for tip..i just did it while your video was playing..lol
Thank you, Sam. Very helpful.
And if you don't want to scratch your tub?
what butcher . . . and all the poor people following this advice!
This waa a very good video and it was very informative
So when you meant " seconds", you meant enough seconds to add up to 20 or 30 minutes.
Hahahaha I was thinking the same thing
Quick overview - buy a multitool. If you dont have one, a scraper tool. If you dont have either of those.....watch out for hurting your hands.
By using this method, I worry that I would damage the tiles or tub surface. Mineral spirits to soften the caulk (esp. silicone) with good ventilation (working in small sections) along with a razor seems like a better way to go and less likely to damage anything. 🤔
I just use a box cutter knife or a craft knife and it gets right under the silicone. Push it under the caulking and it comes up with no fuss.
Thank you for being informative.
Thank you for this video!
Hi, would the multi-tool work better if the old caulking was a bit harder or a bit softer? Or doesn't matter much at all?
Called silicone in UK, caulk is what decorators use.
Well caulk comes in many forms. Silicone, acrylic, rubber. In bathrooms you use silicone caulk because the bathroom gets wet. For painters and walls and such you use things like acrylic caulk. So yes we call it caulk because it is we just don’t say what form of caulk unless we need to specify

That will mar the tub . Utility knife is all u need, acetone wipe down then caulk
Th word is informative. But good job great video .
Use a utility knife and a utility scraper. they work even better than the multi tool.
