New glass
This week I visited a Papamoa residence to refurbish and ClearShield a shower screen that was only 3 months old. Because it was relatively new glass, I expected to follow ClearShield Eco-system six step process to achieve this. On inspection of the glass, water staining was already present on the edge of the screen but also surprisingly there was significant build-up of contaminants on the bottom half of the screen, see first photo, milky appearance. As a result I had to add an additional step to the process to machine buff off these contaminants, as chemical or physical activity alone would not remove this.
So next time your in the shower check the condition of your glass by rubbing your hand from the top of the glass to the bottom, if you feel roughness, this is a build up of contaminants. Initially you may remove some of these contaminants with household cleaners or DIY advertised products, but this is a short term win.
The ClearShield Eco-system removes these contaminates from the pores of the glass, not just the surface, and then seals the pores of the glass. As a result ClearShield treated glass will reduce your frequency of cleaning by 50% and when you do clean, save up to 85% in your time and cleaning materials.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
