What happens here

After applying the bead of sealant, use your finger to 'tool' or smooth out the sealant. This action presses the sealant firmly into the joint, ensuring maximum adhesion and creating a clean, professional-looking finish that blends seamlessly with the surrounding surface. The presenter notes that with a properly cut nozzle, tooling becomes easier.

Goal: Smooth and finish the applied sealant for a professional look.

You can just put it to the test, spread some out, look at that bead. So if you get it cut just right, look at that. So I can just, now I can tool it, look at that. Do you see what it says? It says stucko. It says textured like mortar stretches like rubber. Look at that.
