Resealing the galley to prevent water damage

The silicone around the galley and the sink was black and rotten and was allowing water to damage the woodwork. Today we quickly strip that silicone out and re-do it hopefully stopping the water damage and making it look prettier.

Hi Dave might help from Screwfix you can buy instead of using finger it’s a tool that you clip different radius rubbers on it works well
In the corners I think clear silicone veneer to veneer good video keep them coming 😅😅

Funny you should mention those tools i actually have a full set in my toolbag, never been able to use them to good effect :) with regards to the silicone colour though I think you're right it does need to be clear so I'll buy a small tube of clear and think i'm going to end up redoing it.

...and dont go for that 5hite sealant. Go for the more expensive anti mould sealant. In the long term it will work out better 👍

[@DavesBoat]

It is anti-mould and milldew bathroom sealant I used but I think I wanna go for clear now it's been white for a while so I'll strip it and redo it at some point
