A few months back, I read about a new shower enclosure having a proprietary coating that reduced surface tension and was purported to stay clean.
I can’t recall the magazine that had the article although it sounds like something from Popular Sciences’s “What’s New ” section. Has anyone heard
of a coating for glass enclosures that helps keep the unit cleaner than what we can expect from normal use? I’m aware of the new squirt-on stuff that
reduces surface tension and has a bit of detergent as well for an “after sower fix” . The article implied that the surface was treated and was permanent.
