Troubleshooting
Ring does not fit securely
Ensure the overflow hole is clean and free of debris. If the hole is slightly larger than standard, consider a thin bead of clear silicone sealant around the edge for a tighter fit (ensure sealant is appropriate for bathroom use and removable if needed).
Finish appears dull or discolored
Clean the ring gently with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that can strip the finish. Ensure the product is dried completely after cleaning.
Ring is difficult to insert
Check for any obstructions within the overflow hole. Ensure you are aligning the ring correctly with the opening. Do not force the ring; if it resists, re-check compatibility and hole condition.
