I was also looking at my caulking gun, and the part that applies the pressure has a series of ratchets on there, which may lead to a uneven bead, where you get a glob, then it slows down, then a glob and a slow down etc.....

It also does not help the process that I approach it from a negative mindspace. Today I bought some goo gone, some hopefully I can clean up some of the excess, to try and salvage the job a little bit.
I've used a cheap gun like that for years, and just recently acquired a better one. Amazing the difference it makes. The cheap ones are garbage, and the better ones only cost a little more.



Last year building my garage I bought one of the big ones, it was the cheapest one. What a piece of garbage. After 30 minutes I took it back, and the better one made a world of difference.


Don't cheap out on your caulk dispenser, people!
