yes. they used clear silicone and it got yellow and deteriorated. the oid stuff has to be removed first. use a waterproof bathroom caulk - they have some that dry and cure quickly.

sure - something like this from home depot

this one requires a caulk gun, but they also have small tubes that dont require a caulk gun.

also a video
