There's sprays you can use to make electronics water RESISTANT. But really, the tin and 3d parts will protect the electronics from a light spray... Are you trying to go swimming with it?

You could fill the insides with cement like this

or more realistically, nail polish
or this

Nearly impossible because:
-PLA printing material will dissolve over long term in water
-Speaker outlet will catch water
-Charger connector will allow water entry
-Display will catch water due to capillary action
-All buttons need mechanical gaps to allow free movement which allow again water to enter..
And so on...
