I am grouting a new ceramic tiled counter top and can only find "unsanded" caulk in the same color as the grout? What can I do to make the caulk look "sanded"? Thanks,

Kavanaugh

Never seen sanded caulk. Believe there is no such thing. If your only caulking where the counter meets the walls, if you have a nice thin bead of caulk it will look fine. You could also seal that joint w/ clear caulk.

Actually there is a sanded caulk. But, I found it to be annoying to work with.

Just use the regular caulk as Skiberger suggests. Sanded caulk requires that the nozzle be cut bigger to allow the thicker caulk to come out.

Where joints require caulking, I try and use the thinnest cut needed and then PUSH the tip into the joint vs. drawing the gun backwards. This will force the caulk into the joint instead of having it just be on the surface.

If it is, here is a link to order some over the internet:
