Does anyone have experience using the products BIG STRETCH and/or LEXEL. I am looking for something other than average caulk for sealing around doors/windows. I am attracted to the product’s ability to cover large gapsa and expand / contract with structure movement. Products website is WWW.SASHCO.COM. Thanks

I've been using Big Stretch for a year, or so and it seems to be holding up well. I've never tested their claim that it can handle 1/2"+ gaps, though - I pack wide gaps with that plastic "rope" filler first.
I've used LEXEL/GEOCEL and liked the results. Good adhesion and crystal clear. I applied some 8+ years ago to a wood to brick joint and it's still doing the job. Backer Rod is recommended for large/deep joints.
I have been using Sashco products, and their 'Big Stretch', for many years.
I highly recommend.
