Caulking the expansion joints and fractures of your driveway, patio or pool deck prevents water from washing out the foundation below the concrete causing further cracking and sinking. It also prevents water from freezing in and below the joints during winter.
Acrylic Latex: Good for general applications such as sealing around windows, doors, and moldings. May be used both inside and out as long as the temperature is 40º F or higher while curing. Can be painted and also comes in colors. Water and mildew resistant but needs to dry thoroughly before getting wet. Not as flexible as silicone or butyl rubber, but easier to apply and cleans up with soap and water.
Butyl Rubber: Forms a highly water resistant sealant and is excellent for caulking concrete, brick, or metal surfaces. Can be painted when completely cured. Remains flexible and is a good choice for joints that expand and contract, like gutters and roof flashing. Messy to use and requires solvent for cleanup.
Silicone: Best for sealing glass, metal, ceramic tile, and other non-porous surfaces. Additionally, silicone is perfect for pourous surfaces, especially concrete. While most brands cannot be painted, it’s available in clear and several colors. Remains flexible after drying. Since nothing sticks to cured silicone—including more silicone—it is hard to repair and leaves a film behind that is difficult to remove. Can be applied at almost any temperature. Emits a sharp odor when curing and requires solvent for cleanup.
Kitchen and Bath: Specifically designed for areas subject to high moisture like around sinks and tubs. Comes in a variety of colors that resist mold and mildew growth. Allow to dry thoroughly before getting wet. Cleans up with soap and water.

Caulks don't stick to dust, chalk, dirt and other contaminants. Also remove any loose or damaged substrates. Washing an area and letting it dry before caulking can really improve adhesion. A&E Caulking Solutions takes extra care in cleaning all surfaces of any dust and debris to ensure you get the most out of your money.
The term elastomeric refers to the ability of a material to stretch and then return to its original shape, i.e., it has "memory." Elastomeric caulks are normally the better choice and an excellent choice with any kind of paint.
