A quality product that produces quality results!
I had the opportunity to try the ALEX ULTRA Advanced Latex sealant for the first time. I have used many brands over the years for my caulking needs and was looking forward to seeing how this fared against those.
I decided to do up my tiles in the bathroom above my bathtub, as it needed some immediate attention.
After scraping off the old caulk that had shrunk and also got cracks, it was time to get to work.
I cleaned and dried the surface and cut the nozzle for the caulk gun and applied it the normal way as I have done in the past when caulking.
It was really easy to apply and cleaned out any excess caulk on the edges. I was pleasantly blown away by how fast it dried. It does say 15 mins on the packaging, but I left it for an hour just to make sure.
The sealant is brand and mold resistant. This is a big plus point in my books. It is also anti-shrink and offers a lifetime guarantee, which speaks a lot about the brand as a whole.
One thing I noticed is that there is no heavy odor lingering around. It came off very smooth when applying. It is also 100% waterproof and doesn't pick up dirt.
This brand has taught of everything when keeping its customers first and understanding their needs. I can't wait to finish the painting over the caulk next week, without having to worry about underlying cracks and it shrinking, like some of the other past brands I have used.
Two thumbs up and 100% Recommended for all your caulking needs!!
Easy to use and works great
This sealant was really easy to use and looks great. I highly recommended it. Perfect for a big project or just small diy things around the house. Even easy for beginners to use.
WOW - Amazing Sealant!
This is an excellent product. I love the anti-shrink technology that DAP Alex Ultra has. I did not notice any shrinkage. The product is durable and long lasting. No cracks even after being painted! It was quick to dry and I was able to pain in as little as 15 minutes. Overall a fantastic product that is durable and applies smoothly and easily and 100% waterproof seal and mould and mildew resistant. Easy to work with - I highly recommend!
Works wonders for home improvement
I absolutely recommend this product if you have an upcoming home project. It is very easy to use. It also does not have a strong chemical smell like other brands i used previously
Stays fresh & looking clean!
In exchange for my honest review, @thisisbutterly sent me a #freeproduct #DAPAlexUltra. I live in a pretty old house, so I am always looking for ways to improve it, and as the #1 caulk brand pro-painters prefer as well as a fellow DIYer, I knew I was in for a treat! This sealant is an excellent multi-material adhesion and also has the lowest shrink latex on the market. With these two features combined, it should provide a long-lasting seal that won't crack after, even painting and is also backed by a Lifetime Guarantee. It was so easy to use, I popped it in my caulking gun, cut the tip off, then started sealing the gaps around my windows, and went on to filling cracks in the walls. Surprisingly, it didn't give off any odour, it dried extremely quick, and the clean up was no effort at all. And the finish, that was the best surprise of all. It looked absolutely amazing! Superior quality, excellent performance, I'd say it got the job done right and more!
DAP latex
Je recommande ce produit DAP scellant latex blanc. L’utilisation est facile et très efficace. Une semaine après l’utilisation cela n’a pas rétrécie est resté blanc et aucune poussière n’y s’est collé. Je le recommande pour vos travaux
Amazing stuff!
We received ALEX ULTRA Advanced Latex Sealant as a free sample from butterfly. It was very easy to use, dried literally in 15 minutes like it said and was so easy to paint over! We used it to caulk the baseboards in one of our bathrooms. My husband is very familiar with different sealants and said by far this has been the best one he used. It also didn't have a super strong odor which was great!
Quick job done
This caulking tool is very easy and smooth to apply. Remember you Must be gentle in squeezing the trigger otherwise pressure build-up would occur and it would keep oozing out. Love the ability to paint very quickly after application. This speeds up my work in one shot. Also it's water resistant which is a very big feature. The color blends greatly with white trim and molding without needing to paint it. Time will tell about flexibility.
It’s good consistency and texture, making it easier for to work with. Remember Being gentle with the trigger to prevent pressure build-up otherwise it will keep oozing out
The ability to paint quickly after application is certainly a time-saving feature. I don't have to wait for the caulk to fully dry for hours before applying paint, it took only 15 minutes to dry which significantly speed up my work process.
The water-resistant property of the caulking is especially useful when using it outdoors, as it helps to protect against moisture and maintain the integrity of the seal. This is important for preventing water damage and ensuring the longevity of the caulking.
This product can use on variety of surfaces.
The fact that the color of the caulking blends well with white trim and molding without needing to be painted is a convenient feature. It saves me the extra step of painting over the caulk to match the surrounding surfaces.
Overall, this caulking has several desirable qualities, such as ease of use, quick paintability, water resistance, and color compatibility and the best part is that it’s low in odour, and doesn’t pick up dirt It's always a good idea to monitor its performance over time to ensure it continues to meet your expectations.

The ALEX ULTRA Advanced Latex Sealant has exceeded our expectations! It works so quickly and looks like the job of a professional.

I truly felt like less was more using this latex sealant and the finished product is outstanding!
