What Type of Caulking will adhere to Composite Decking for water proofing?

Home Improvement Asked by pfaithcomcastnet on August 6, 2021

I need a sealer Caulk to fill a approx. 3/8" gap between my Composite Decking boards to waterproof
and prevent water from dripping between the boards and going on to a deck below. I want the rain water to flow over the composite decking boards to the edge of the deck and run off onto a roof that will take the water away.

What is the best product for this application?

Typically you need those gaps for expansion of the boards in hot weather- if they're tight to each other they can get damaged as they expand from heat.

They make under-deck panels that catch the water and direct it out a side that work very well. That would be a better solution than caulking, which would most likely need to be re-done every year or two anyway.
