Mastic guns, extruding sealant from a tube through a nozzle, have become a vital weapon in the armoury of the DIY-er and tradesman. Although many of their applications have arisen from the development of new silicon-based materials, the idea of an extruding gun has been around for some time, with patents being placed since 1894. This is an example from when the type began to be widely used for the first time, dispensing latex-based caulk, made by the leading UK manufacturers.
