Default Porous grout in shower

Had problems with the shower always leaking - seems to be the grout
getting porous. Desperate measures so used so waterproofing stuff for
outside walls - Thompsons water seal - and it seems to have done the
trick!

Are you sure it's not hairline cracks in the grouting? If so, I suspect
the Thompson's would probably have filled them.
