SHOWER SYSTEM TROUBLESHOOTING
SISTINE STONE is easy to clean using dish soap. Dish soap is inexpensive and great to dissolve body oils as well will not
leave a buildup of soap. If you have hard water spotting you may need something stronger like Comet or another
non-scratch cleanser. "Lightly" scrub the stained area in a circular motion to avoid discoloration. The stone is naturally
waterproof and will not absorb spills or soil, simply wipe away with a damp sponge.
Periodic cleaning with a sponge and warm, soapy water will remove any build up of dust or grime.
P
eriodically check the grout and silicone for any cracks and repair as needed.
CARE & MAINTENANCE OF YOUR SHOWER SYSTEM
Correcting Bowed Wall Panels Sistine Stone Wall Panels are made to be flexible and may have a slight bow. This
condition is normal and the panels will flatten when properly installed. If the panels have been stored improperly or
have become excessively bowed, follow instructions below. Using a hair dryer or heating pad/blanket, warm up the
backside of the panel in the most bowed area. Once the panel becomes malleable, lay panel on a flat surface and
apply weight until cool and flat.
C
racked Tile As with any tile project, a tile can become damaged. Simply cut out the damaged tile, silicone a
replacement tile in place, and grout.
Cracked Wall Panel Seam If your wall panel developed a crack in a grout line, simply grout over the cracked seam
w hen it is installed. The grout will correct the problem, you will not be able to tell the crack was ever there.
Scratches & Blemishes Can be removed by wet-sanding the tile surface. Make sure tile surface and sandpaper are
wet, and sand tiles until scratches and blemishes are removed.
Hinged Door Will Not Stay Closed Adjust height of door sweep to provide proper tension and seal.
Door Leaking The shower doors are designed not to leak under normal usage when installed properly, and the water
f low is not pointed directly at the vinyl seals, hinges or opening.
