I seem to remember reading somewhere about a caulk that you can buy that can be tinted. I am in need of a caulk to seal between a wall and some trim on top of a knee wall, and i want a caulk colored the same as the wall.
Any suggestions?

Red Devil makes a caulk tinter thingamajig. Basically a plunger. Pop the back off the tube of clear caulk (or white if it's a light / off white color) and add the required amount of paint (you're painting the wall yellow and want the caulk yellow . . . etc)
Works like a charm. Even dark reds and blues dry to the correct color in about 24 hours.
