Silkaflex 221 Gray Stains

I used Silkaflex 221 Gray on the top of the curved part of a 26ft land yacht, it leaves chalky gray lines down the side of the rig. Is this normal for this product. I did notice when I was applying it was very hard, not soft like most caulks.

It may have bled a bit during the curing process. It should be stable once cured. You should be able to remove the streaks with rubbing alcohol. If the stains are too stubborn for the alcohol, try mineral spirits.

The stains should come off with mineral spirits or acetone
