Caulking
Curious what you folks are using for exterior caulking. I use dicor and eternabond tape where appropriate but what about some of those fine caulking lines that are on the roof and sidewall joints? ...

Be careful with etarnabond, as a percaution I’d used it around the perimeter of the bath skylite thinking I’ll now never have a worry about a leak there ever - NOT So!!... A couple years later I noticed water leaking in around the skylite, but assumed the intrusion must have came from some other nearby area and not the skylite...Turned out that my assumption was very wrong and water being shed down from the skylite would hit the surrounding eternabond edge like a dam and then leak thru to the ceiling...A bead of caulking around the inside eternabond surround (where it meets the skylite) stopped the leak for good...
