This is more about caulking than painting, but posting here because it didn't really seem to fit the plumbing category.
Our master bath shower door frame has small rectangular openings along the inside of the bottom piece; there are a half dozen of these evenly spaced along the entire length (see photo).
Where the frame piece makes contact with the shower bottom is caulked, as well as at the two ends where it meets the sides going up. I assume water gets in these holes when the shower runs, but with it caulked on all sides, I don't know how the water would then run back out.
What would the purpose of these holes be, and should I find some way to close them?
