  1. I prefer to put the silicone on the sink rim, then set the sink in place. I don't know what the professionals do, but that's always made less mess for me.

  2. Hmm, surprised at a few things he did….yanking a sink off laminate without first breaking the silicone seal around the rim is risky, He was lucky he didn't rip the laminate apart & had to buy the guy a new countertop. Didnt remove the disposal either…
