Glass protection
This week I visited Omokoroa to refurbish and ClearShield protect this shower. Unfortunately the silica/water staining could not be completely removed from all area's of the glass after 5 hours effort! The Owner did mention the silica is that bad in the area it had blocked several ports of the shower rose recently and so had to be unblocked.
We definitely made a big improvement, 90 to 95% and at least now the shower is not getting noticed for all the wrong reasons, so this Home owner was very pleased with the result.
Like I have said earlier, it is best that if you do install a new shower or have a new house build, definitely get your shower glass protected by ClearShield. Left unprotected the glass will eventually become tired, loss clarity and look unhygienic and it is expensive to renovate.
If you would like to know more give me a call or email.

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)
.
