On behalf of Expert Village, my name is George Engle with Mr. Fix-It Handyman here in Miami, Florida and today I am going to be showing you how to install weather stripping on the exterior of your garage door. Okay in this clip, I am going to show you some of the materials you will need to change the weather stripping on your garage door. Some of them will include some sealant. I prefer this brand. It is a little difficult to find but it is a good exterior sealant. A caulking gun that's for the application, a hammer for removal, pry bars, a couple of different ones; this is a pry bar, this is going to be a wedge, some extra sealant and some finishing nails just to hold the trim in place while the adhesive sealing agent has time to dry. Okay when you are going to set up your sealant in your caulking gun, they have a convenient little cutter right here. If you notice when you pull the handle, they will cut the tip off for you. In order to get a more accurate cut, you can use something like a razor knife, something with a sharp blade on the end so you can just nick off a little end, put a 90 degree cut and you can go right around the back of the trim with it; it will go well.
