How should I clean the anthracite slate effect tray?

Troubleshooting
Water leakage from the enclosure
Ensure all seals and fittings are correctly installed and tightened. Check the tray's seal to the floor and walls. Verify that the shower head is not directed towards the opening and consider adjusting water pressure if excessive.
Slow water drainage from the tray
Clean the fast-flow waste trap. Remove any hair, soap scum, or debris that may be obstructing the waste. Ensure the waste pipe connected to the trap is clear.
Glass panels are difficult to clean
Use a non-abrasive glass cleaner specifically designed for shower enclosures. Apply a microfiber cloth or a soft sponge. For stubborn marks, a solution of white vinegar and water can be effective, followed by rinsing and drying.
Enclosure feels unstable
Verify that all wall-mounted brackets and screws are securely fastened. Re-check the integrity of the wall into which the enclosure is fixed. Professional installation is advised to prevent instability.
