one of my shower walls is cement, no tile. I'll be sealing. Would one use the "5 in 1" for that? or what?
also, is grout sealer adequite (sp) for shower floor with wide grout margins?monoloco - 1-22-2011 at 07:36 AM
5 in 1 would not be the best choice in a wet area, I would recommend poly form, a 2 part urethane sealer for showers. It's available at Comex, you
will also want to get the reducer and thin it down.DENNIS - 1-22-2011 at 08:37 AM
Why don't you tile it? That would not only seal it, but make it more cleanable as well.heike - 1-22-2011 at 08:52 AM
Hi, I hope you dont mind me askinga a question.....
I have tile in my shower and was wondering what is the best way to keep them clean? Is there a sealant I should put over all of the tile?

we seal the grout in the showers with sealer
and use a light oil for the tiles to keep
the hard water deposits off them
works welltoneart - 1-22-2011 at 12:10 PM

Sounds slippery. Do you use rubber mats?

2 walls are tiled with sheets of colored glass..expense and ability to get it there is the "why" one wall is cement..an improvement I can do later in
the future.Taco de Baja - 1-23-2011 at 08:57 AM

Also, keep a squeegee in the shower and wipe the walls down after you are done. This really helps remove the soap scum and remove moisture that mold
and mildew like. You can even buy "pretty" ones made for bathrooms if you don't want to use a vehicle squeegee. I personally have vehicle squeegee in
my shower with the handle removed.
liquid soap

We have found that we have less soap/scum (yuk) buildup if we use liquid soap such as shower gel......instead of bar soap
