    Hi jim_g,
    The knack is cutting the nozzle to the right size to gap your filling, making sure area where appling is clean and dry. Then after application. Leave for a couple of minutes then ideally putting latex/surgical type gloves on, wet finger and smooth into joint, but some use rounded decorators knife. It can be messy and awkward but after a little practise you can master it!
    Regards
