As someone who enjoys problem solving, I thought I could find my own solution to this one, but so far I’ve drawn a blank:
At joint where the backsplash sits on top of stone counters, I’ve often seen problems from water intrusion after original silicon caulk stops doing its job. Anyone come up with a more permanent technique for this situation?
Thanks.

Are you sure about that site address? I was led to a telecommunications firm when I tried it.

sorry about that...here is correct one http://www.ntc-stone.com/main1.htm
I wrote an article in SolidSurface magazine (July,'05) addressing this topic for solid surface, but the techniques described would work the same for granite or engineered stone.
