Choosing the Right Repair Caulk: Sashco’s Slab vs. Mor-Flexx

It can be confusing to choose the right caulking product when they have a lot in common.

Say you have a concrete crack in your sidewalk, and a crack in your stucco near a window. Sashco makes two great products, both made for these textured surfaces. So which one should you use?

The answer is both.

Yes, Sashco’s Slab® and Mor-Flexx® have some similarities:

  • With extra elasticity, to handle the movement that all normal homes undergo with wind and changes in weather

Can I use Slab in place of Mor-Flexx? Or Mor-Flexx in place of Slab®?

Yes, you may use Slab where you use Mor-Flexx, but it probably won’t match as well as Mor-Flexx. For better overall aesthetics, choose Mor-Flexx. (It’s also costs a bit less.)

No, you may not use Mor-Flexx where you use Slab. It’ll get beat up and damaged by foot and vehicle traffic.
