Materials:
1 quart Mineral Spirits
½ of a 2.8oz tube 100% Clear Silicone Caulking
Container with lid, 2 quart capacity
Tools:
Paint stick or dowel
Paint brush
Instructions:
1. Pour 1 quart of mineral spirits into your container.
2. Add half a tube of 100% clear silicone caulking.
3. Stir the caulking into the mineral spirits to break it up. Then fit the lid on tightly and shake the contents until completely incorporated.*
4. Paint the solution onto your chosen object, covering it completely in the solution.
5. Allow the object to cure for 24 hours before exposing it to water.
For those worried about the fumes - once your object has cured for 24 hours, the fumes will have evaporated and therell be no need to worry.

Hint: Be sure to purchase clear silicone. It comes in white and almond as well, but you probably dont want to change the color of what youre waterproofing!
