Hello all, put pannelling up and caulked the pannelling with a cheap decorative caulk (soudol I think was brand). Have very little amount of pink left so didn't want to take the chance the pink covers cracks, bought a caulk that stated 'no cracking' and lightly re caulked, it said can paint within 5 mins but leaving it 24hrs to be in safe side... hoping Tomo I can paint the what's left of pink to them cut in the brown paint...wish me luck, have I done the right thing?
Any tips welcome...cheers
