I would NEVER put drylok on plywood alone. Use 1/4inch hardi, for showers and such, and fillet all the corners. I did however put 2 coats of drylok around the window frame that is just plywood and siliconed the glass to it, working like a champ so far. 3 weeks filled

So you only put hardi on the back, bottom and sides bu not the front where you just dryloked it?
 
ohhhhhhhh okay so the glass just rests on the hardi board. Also to ''fillet" the corners you just took a strip of hardi board and screwed it into the corner.....right? Could I just not fillet it and put silicone instead?
Oh and how much did you pay for your hardi board?

Thanks for the help I appreciate it:)

Filleting..take a 2x2 and cut it 45 degree corners, then cover in hardi

hardi is 10usd for a 3x5 sheet 1/4 inch

I used arylic latex caulk and screwed the hardi to pplywood
