Troubleshooting

Cover plate does not fit securely

Ensure you are using the correct bolt and screw. Verify that the bolt is aligned with the overflow hole and that the screw is fully engaged. Check that your sink has a square overflow and is compatible with this product.

Chrome finish appears dull or discolored

Wipe the plate with a soft, damp cloth. If discoloration persists, use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for chrome finishes. Ensure all cleaning residues are rinsed off and the plate is dried thoroughly.

Bolt or screw is difficult to tighten

Check for any debris in the overflow hole or on the bolt threads. Ensure the bolt is inserted straight. If resistance continues, do not force it, as this may damage the sink or the product.
