This may occur on other shower base types but ours is quarry tiles and

according to HID, respond to the normal range of cleaners.

Any suggestion please - thanks in advance


Either body fat or limescale. I suspect the latter, get some Lime Lite or
similar.

Ban soap. Only use liquid shower gels (Sanex is good). It will improve
things and save a lot of cleaning.
