the 4x4 stone shower floors look good when they are new ( per my wife ) ,but what is the longevity of these porous stones ?
I have read post of DIYers using sealers to remedy the problem but it seems like a stop gap measure for a product that is not meant for floors
Any thoughts ?

Did you use the redguard for the pan instead of a vinyl liner?
when you say "set enough to walk on" are you talking overnight, 12 hrs or?
Just curious about the Red Gard as a crack prevention membrane ,can it be used in place of Ditra on a 1 1/4" OSB subfloor ?
