Easy Installation

Before installing a shower liner, you’ll want to make sure the walls are clean and free of soap scum, mildew and other buildup. Fortunately, you can use a mild cleanser and a scrub brush.

Once the walls are clean, remove any old tiles, caulk or adhesive and carefully remove any loose grout from the tiles’ joints. If you’re re-tiling, make sure you follow the manufacturer’s installation guidelines.

Most acrylic shower liners are installed with a silicone adhesive. If you’re re-tiling, make sure you use silicone that’s designed for waterproofing. Once the liner is in place, you’ll want to caulk all the joints where the liner meets the wall, floor and ceiling.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Most acrylic shower liners are easy to clean and maintain. While mild soap and water will remove most stains, mildew can be more stubborn.

You can use a mild bleach-free bleach solution to remove mildew from your shower liner. For best results, clean your liner after every use. If you have hard water and notice stains or build-up, you may want to clean your shower liner once a week. To prolong the life of your liner, be sure not to scrub too hard or use abrasive cleaners.
