Understanding JetGlaze Glass Technology
Traditional grid-style shower doors often rely on heavy interior metal framing or applied grids that trap soap scum and hard water deposits in hard-to-reach crevices. The JetGlaze pattern used in this enclosure achieves a striking industrial mullion look directly on the glass surface without physical metal dividers on the inner face. Think of it like a picture frame printed cleanly onto the pane rather than built out of separate metal bars, giving you the sophisticated aesthetic of multi-pane glass while maintaining a smooth, uninterrupted surface that wipes clean in seconds.
Installation Guide
Ensure the corner installation area is clean, plumb, and square before beginning assembly.
Use the anodized aluminum wall profiles to compensate for up to 1/2 in. of out-of-plumb variance on your walls.
Install the SlimLine acrylic shower base directly to studs following standard direct-to-stud guidelines.
Connect the base to any standard 2 in. compression fitted drain according to local plumbing codes.
Allow all silicone sealants to cure fully before using the shower for the first time.
Care & Maintenance
Daily Rinsing Spray down the glass and acrylic base with clean warm water after every shower to prevent soap residue buildup.
Glass Cleaning Wipe the clear tempered glass panels using a soft microfiber cloth and a mild, non-abrasive glass cleaner.
Base Upkeep Clean the glossy acrylic shower base with a non-abrasive liquid cleanser and a soft sponge to preserve its protective finish.
Avoid Abrasions Never use scouring pads, steel wool, or harsh chemical solvents on either the glass or the acrylic surfaces.
Hardware Care Dry the anodized aluminum profiles periodically with a soft towel to maintain their pristine finish.
