caulking around sink
The caulking around my sink is brown and very sticky. I want to replace it. What type of caulk do I need?

If you want to do a very good job and ensure no water gets to the formica (I'm guessing that's what you have) and swells it, then pull the sink , clean the area, and lay down some Butyl tape. Remount the sink and remove the excess Butyl as it squeezes out.
Butyl is not a good choice for this application, especially in the kitchen. If you look up installation instructions for quality top mounted sinks silicone is the product of choice.
