An applicator nozzle for applying a bead of sealant or a similar material to an object, and a method of use thereof. An applicator nozzle of the present invention includes a nozzle body having a first end for connection to a supply of sealant or another flowable material, and a second end adapted to dispense said material. A trailing orifice is located at a trailing side of the applicator nozzle to dispense a trailing bead of material behind the applicator nozzle as it is moved along the object. A leading orifice is located at a leading side of the applicator nozzle to dispense a leading bead of material ahead of the applicator nozzle at least upon connection of the end of the material bead with its starting point. A continuous material bead with no gaps can thus be formed.
