Dripless ETS2000 The Yellow Gun Composite Caulk Gun - Dripless Caulking Gun for 10 oz Cartridges or Tubes - Lightweight Body - 12:1 Thrust Ratio - Pro Painter Preferred

I recently had a DIY project at the house that required some caulking. Like a lot of people I have an old caulk gun that has been hanging around for years and, of course, I put that to work. And of course immediately hit the old problem of caulk flow not stopping when I finished a bead but there was still pressure pushing behind the caulk tube. I Googled for solutions and found a YouTube video of a guy demonstrating caulking technique who was, incidentally, using a very cool looking caulk gun. I of course then started searching for "dripless caulk gun" and found the Dripless ETS2000 Ergo Composite Caulk Gun. I ordered it right away. Having used it now on two projects I have to say this is the nicest, in terms of design and construction, and also the best performing caulk gun I have ever used. True to its name it is in fact dripless. A quick squeeze of the trigger without a tube in shows why. When you release pressure on the trigger the ram backs off just enough to stop adding pressure to the caulk tube. My old caulk gun advanced the ram to a fixed position and halted. The Dripless ETS2000 Ergo Composite Caulk Gun is cool looking, nice to handle, performs well, seems built to last, doesn't drip and is priced right. What's not to like? RECOMMENDED.

This is an excellent quality caulking gun. We had a similar one previously and this one works even better as far as the ability to prevent caulk from escaping, etc...Highly recommend!

Every time I use this I get the thought that there should be a ban on regular caulk guns that just keep going after you let go of the trigger handle. Working with this tool is a joy. I'm just a DIY home user but I saw this model recommended by a youtuber and have appreciated the upgrade over my old cheapo caulk gun(and lets not talk about the terrible squeeze bottle I did part of my kitchen with). I've used it for painters caulk, exterior caulk, and roof cement with perfect performance so far. It is amazing how quickly and cleanly I can apply caulk with this thing. I'm sure contractors might use it more in a week than I do in a year so I hope it holds up a long time for me.

This caulk gun is so easy and lightweight. I work as a professional painter; exterior and interior, brand new homes and repaints. As long as you cut the tube at a nice 45 degree angle (I usually cut an "X" on the back of the caulk tube, where it gets pushed, for air to circulate) The gun is easy to maneuver and there's no need to worry about pushing a button to make the caulk stop flowing. No need to rotate your arms at awkward angles. The best thing is that it gets better with use. I originally bought this gun last year on March with almost daily use and still works so it's durable! Now for the cons. The gun, being new, doesn't hold the caulk tube in place if you were to hang the gun on a ladder or the side of your pants. I've had a couple of occasions when I had my caulk gun on my ladder being around 20ft and slower the weight of the caulk tube opens the pulley and the tubes went down to the ground. But like I said it as it gets used the tube stays in place, it should do it anyways. The tip cutter isn't great don't use it. Seriously just don't, you'll just end up with a really bad cut and will need to make the cut bigger which will make a bigger mess. Bigger hole = more caulk. Unless your filling a big gap go for it. Honestly that's it. Won't hesitate to rebuy. Still my favorite caulk gun, nothing's perfect and it works! Will upload pictures to compare usage (new one has light usage already)

I bought this to replace my old drippy caulking gun. I actually started my project with a different gun and the dripping was driving me crazy. Switched to this one and—no more drips. Huge improvement.

dripless caulking gun worked well.

I guess the star of the show is the dripless feature but let's not forget the ability to turn the cartridge to stay on track without having to turn the whole gun. I've used it on a variety of caulks from latex, to silicone to masonry products and it worked on all but one. For some reason when using it with fire block it dripped like crazy. Not the end of the world because of that one instance so no stars off. Recommended. Enjoy!

Finally got a caulking gun that doesn’t drip while using. It will push the caulking out a little after you sit down but compared to other guns that I’ve used where you have to either push the button or pull back on the release to get it to stop this is a game changer for a Paint Contractor like me. Also, you have to make sure you look at the ratio of the gun this does matter you don’t want too heavy of a ratio this will. Push out regular caulking, that painters used for trim . The heavier ratio is for heavier, use caulking, and exterior caulk that have a heavier base and require more pressure. This is perfect for interior exterior regular latex, caulking and oil base caulking for painters, light ratio, so the caulking won’t keep being pushed out.

Much better than the gun I've used before (and that was not cheap). Highly impressed with "no drip" feature. No need to pull back on the "plunger" to stop caulking. Highly recommended.

No issues with seller. Item arrived within the specified time frame and was what I ordered, packed neatly and securely. No issues.

Excelente..cumple con el objetivo. La calidad no está comprometida.

Bought for applying some external silicone sealant (Dowsil 791) and, true to its description, the flow stops immediately when you take pressure off the trigger. My previous gun was decent but when you hit the pressure release lever, which you would think might do the same thing, the flow did not stop. The gun is reasonably lightweight and probably would struggle with some of the tougher sealants - but there are other guns in their range that would probably be OK for that.

God butt after a year of usage,the mechanism is slipping .
