How to apply mastic!

How many times has someone said to me "I don't know how you do that so easily!" This is after they have watched me applying a line of mastic around a newly installed door or window frame. The simple answer is --practice, and practice! The same statement could be applied to a plumber who smears his or hers flux and solder to a joint to make a leak free joint or a brickie or plasterer who effortlessly appear to apply their trade as though by magic. These tradespeople do not acquire their skills overnight. It can take many years for a master plasterer to gain the skills that will give him a living, or for a window fitter to finish the job with a nice neat line of mastic to provide a weather proof protection from the elements.
