Uncured silicone problem....

[ferret]

I'll remove the silicone and purchase another new tube to finish the work and not worthwhile for taking any risk of water leakage and out bleach of toxic material to the reef life

Never heard of an old tube of silicone, and not curing? I have tubes that are years old and still work.

Still, clean as best you can. let sit for a few days/week. It can take a long time for the vinegar smell to subside.

This is a second time that this happened to me. First time it was GE II Silicone I tried to use in my bathroom.

Anyway, mentioning the smell, I smelled the bad silicone I have this morning in different room, and there is no vinegar smell to it at all. Also it is a bit harder to squeeze it out of the tube and is not as clear as All Glass I've originally used. I should have paid more attention to it when I first opened it , but I'm not silicone expert and thought this is just maybe another kind.
