We had to be on the roof to fix the squirrel damage to the siding, and while there we checked on the solar panels and the skylights. I noticed one of the skylights was rather unfinished at the top, right under the glass. That is the skylight in the central bathroom, and is the "shortest" one. I can set a ladder up on the bathroom floor and get up to the glass from the inside for it. The other two are taller, and I can't reach the glass.
Originally the idea was just to clean the inside of the glass, but looking at the way that the wall stopped when it got to the skylight, I figured it needed to be sealed and painted.
So I got one of those cans of foam seal and insulate and sprayed it all around the top of the wall.
The next day, after it had dried, I trimmed the excess off, and then used sheetrock mud (drywall compound) to create a smooth finish. After that was dry, sand and apply another coat of mud.
Then sand and paint. Two coats of the Sherwin Williams 7653 Silverpointe paint that was used in the central bathroom when it was remodeled.
Wait for the paint to dry, remove the masking tape, clean up, and it is done.
