My experience with silicon is when it fails it is very difficult to get off and it all has to come off as nothing will stick to it.
I redid about 20 feet of calk done by a drunken, blind person and am great full it was a solvent based caulk. I also had to do around a small access door, 2 feet maybe, that was silicon, took as long as the 20 feet!

3M is about $20 tube, OSI Quad is about $8 tube, even the specialty RV sealants are in the $12 range.
