I have a juniper shower wall that I want to seal or coat to offer more protection. This shower doesn't get used frequently, maybe once a month at most, but I want more than just the raw wood. Though I used a waterproof glue between each tongue and groove seam, I hope to get more protection from water damage and was looking for something appropriate for a vertical space that will get wet. Is this an appropriate product? I was also considering the Watershield from Safecoat. View answer
