DAP Products Inc., a leader in the home improvement and construction products industry, announces enhanced formulations for its ALEX PLUS® and ALEX FAST DRY® acrylic latex caulk products. Already the trusted and preferred brand by professional painters, DAP improved their leading brand of acrylic caulk to meet the needs of these customers.
Professional painters understand that using caulk as part of a paint job provides better results and reduces the risk of callbacks, yet they want products that are versatile and easy to use, saving them time on the job. DAP understands these needs, and improved the formulations for ALEX FAST DRY and ALEX PLUS to provide faster dry times, better adhesion to a wider variety of surfaces, and greater durability.
“The product development team at DAP is continually working to make residential and commercial painters’ jobs easier, cleaner, and long lasting,” said Jennifer Johnson, group product director at DAP.
