Building an Enclosure

I'm building an enclosure(Pics soon to come) . I wated to know:
1. Has anyone used a stain on an enclosure made of plywood..if so which stain is better to use.

2. Waterproofing the wood.. can you use a regular water seal (Thompsons)

3. Tiling: Should I use regulr kitchen tiles? I was thinking of using one Stone tile to mount the heat pad under and kitchen tiles to do the rest? Any Ideas

Any and all help with these answers will be greatly apretiated.(spelling?)

I haven't but did you search the DIY or Caging forums?

I use Water Based Latex, Semi-gloss to paint all mine. Let it cure up a few days and works great.

I dont use the tile thing on mine. Although it seems to work fine.
