How to recaulk windows?

To recaulk windows, remove the old caulk using a utility knife or scraper. Clean the area to ensure a smooth surface. Apply new caulk around the window frame, filling any gaps to prevent drafts and moisture. Use a caulk gun to apply an even bead, and smooth the caulk with a caulking tool or your finger for a neat finish. Allow the caulk to dry completely before painting.
