The brushable is fine for curves, honestly that's kind of what it's for. Thing is though, it doesn't last near as long on a rocker where stuff's gonna be hitting it, so I'd only brush the tight curved spot and keep the caulk gun for the straight runs. Just tool the lumpy bead down before it sets hard and you'll be alright.

I once deleted a folder called "final_final_v3" because I thought the other copy was on my laptop, and it was not. Turns out both were gone and I spent a whole Saturday re-editing a birthday video for my nephew. @david_jones38 has the right idea with checking the trash twice, but half the time my trash is like a black hole that eats things the second I look away. These days I keep a cheap little drive plugged in and I drag everything onto it before I even touch the delete key. It is not fancy but it has saved me from crying at my kitchen table more than once.
