Excellent, will give that a try.

You learn to live with them. Sometimes we learn to let go, no matter how hard it can be.

Zinsser 123, brush it on, lay it off with a roller if you don't want to see some brush marks.

Look at the beadings, you'll see if it looks like they can be removed or not, so is that inside or outside?

Some paints don't bond to caulk very well. Where you've caulked, prime it with a few coats of Zinsser 123. Also, caulk goes too hard and shrinks and cracks over time, use acrylic sealant instead.

They always come back.....

I've seen those, but again are expensive and need brackets drilling into the walls. Probably not suitable long term because of winds, but I think those roof umbrellas are only really for a few days if you're doing roof work in the wet?
