I’m at Home Depot or a bit and am wondering if this will work. It is 100% silicone and comes in a package similar to what is sold here. I’m not sure if it will work for my response. And advice?

Most silicones will work. Flowable just makes it easier.

Yes it will, as long as it says flowable.

It actually doesn’t say flowable, but it comes in the same kind of tube package.

If it doesn’t say flowable it will still work, it will just be harder to apply and probably won’t last as long…
