Question from kt
I bought a beautiful organic cotton shower curtain, but it’s certainly not waterproof and I’m trying to figure out a waterproof shower curtain liner that is 1) not vinyl, 2) not polyester 3) somewhat waterproof. We have some waterproof “wet bags” for canoeing that seem to be just the right weight and waterproofness, but looking at this material it appears to come either as silicon embedded nylon or polyurethane coated nylon. I’m trying to figure out which of these woud possibly outgass the most. Our canoe bags have no odor that I am detecting. Any thoughts on sustainable, non-toxic, yet waterproof shower curtains?
Debra’s Answer
I found the same problem with cotton shower curtains and so installed glass shower doors (see Debra’s Green Bathroom: The Shower).
I learned how to control mold on cotton shower curtains, but not how to make them waterproof.
Readers, any ideas?
