The word caulk comes from the Latin word calcere which means a tread(although some say it is based on the word calx which stands for heel), so more or less it means pressing down the heel with force. That also goes with the Old Northern French usage cauquer which means press with force. In present day construction terms, the word caulk refers to a waterproof sealant which is used by construction experts in filling up joints or seams or gaps in such a way that water can’t get through. Most often caulks are made from one of these base materials – latex, polyurethane, rubber or silicone. Laticrete brings you the Laticrete Latasil 100 Silicone Caulk and Sealant which is one of the finest products of this category. Let us take a look at some of the great features of the Latasil Caulk.
