Yep. Just place the tip of the bottle in the rail/deck interface, squeeze very gently and go. Watch it get sucked into the crack. Again, don't squeeze too hard or it will flow out on the deck. You'll get the technique down in under a minute.
First time, put 5-6 applications about 30-60 minutes apart. Next year you might only do 2-3 applications. I'm down to 1 per year or every other year. It's an aqueous acrylic polymer dispersion. I'm guessing it's a close cousin to the polymers one finds in some grouts and sealants. Once it dries, it's probably stays flexible. Hence it's good application for toe rails. When I looked up the MSDS, I see it's a product of a company called New Pig. We used to buy a lot of their stuff for spill containment/clean up when I was a regulatory manager. Good company. They sell oil absorbent pads and "elephant tampons". https://www.newpig.com/pig-blue-absorbent-sock/p/4048 Probably too much info for the list but I thought it was interesting. Dennis C.
