After base is leveled, if alcove is larger than base, shim between base and studs to create a tight fit. Screw base flange to studs (Fig. 2).

If drywall mud or plaster gets on your shower, it may be carefully removed with a wooden scraper made from a piece of scrap wood.

Adhesive may be removed with mineral spirits.

Ideal cleaners are Soft Scrub Gel® or Comet Gel®.
