Question 11

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

Question 21

Hi there, I'm doing a cedar T&G cabin restoration and I'm looking for a clear coat that will not change the natural look whatsoever. My client had a mold problem due to no ventilation, humid climate & no circulation. I sanded and prepared all the cedar for paint. My clients love the look of the natural cedar, they want to keep this look but every transparent product I've tested so far darkens it. She also wants a gloss on the ceilings and flat on the walls which is basically asking for the impossible to have a variation in the colors but keep the natural Cedar color. Is there a clear or water based transparent product that has had success with this? Any suggestions would be sincerely appreciated! View answer
