Troubleshooting
Toilet brush holder is not sticking to the wall.
Ensure the wall surface was thoroughly cleaned, dried, and free of any residue before application. Reapply using a new 3M adhesive strip, ensuring firm pressure for the recommended duration on a smooth, compatible surface.
Adhesive seems weak after installation.
The adhesive requires adequate curing time. Ensure you waited the recommended 24-48 hours before applying weight. If still weak, the surface may not be ideal; consider professional mounting methods if needed.
Polished chrome finish is dull or damaged.
Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents. Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. If minor scratches are present, a non-abrasive metal polish designed for chrome may be carefully used.
Toilet paper holder feels loose.
Check that the main unit is securely adhered to the wall. If the holder itself is loose from the main unit, inspect for any visible damage or connection points that may need tightening (though most parts are integrated).
