In that case, I don't think you'd want it where the toilet meets the floor.
Even if it's not obvious, toilets sometimes shift very slightly, so you'd
want a sealer that remains a little flexible. Also, I plastic wood probably
won't hold up well with moisture, like when you're washing the floor.

Maybe he should be working at a hardware store or plumbing supply place.
Considering the unbelievable stupidity I've heard from retail help over the
past few years, that old guy's advice is worth money these days.
