Black Slate Shower Tray HELP!?!

[k rogers]

Used a ceramic stool at the end of a new 1800mm black slate shower tray to hold soaps and shampoos. Two months later and the tray is now a warren of white scratches and an indelible 'ring' mark and other water marks. I used nothing to clean the surface harsher than dish washing liquid and a super gentle natural stone cleaner. These trays are not fit for purpose.

Just put a slate effect shower tray in, as wanted a non slip finish for safety. (over 75) Installer said it must be mopped after every use, as water can't drain due to surface not being flat, but happy to do that. Don't feel safe on shiny flat trays

U destroyed mine with Caustic soda that I poured into the shower drain is there anything I can do to remove the stain from my slate grey shower tray

Hi welcome to the forum.

Would you like me to delete that post as it has your name in? Then you can post again without your name (make a name up) and I'll approve it ASAP.

As to the slate, is it the one in the original post from 2020?

Because if it is, and it was even installed 8 months prior, then I guess the 'stain' has been there since not long after the installation?

Looking at the pictures it looks like it could be efflorescence perhaps?

Maybe one of the more experienced people on here could take a look?

Who installed it? Is it the guy from the original post?
