Default Shower tray seal recs please

I need to get something better than the £ Land silicone, which is
leaking within 18 months of application.

Q1. Is there a sealant out there that the pro's use to stop leaks
between the wall and shower tray ?

Q2. Anyone used the soft self-adhesive tape available. Tray is 28 " / 71
cm square, so obviously the 2.8 m length is going to come up short :-)
Which is likely to handle corners better, 22 mm versus 38 mm wide? Happy
to pay extra for a high-end brand if anyone has any recs ? The unbranded
ads in the following, may not be worth the hassle. Thanks in
anticipation :-

Bed some quadrant beading in silicone in all the jointed horizontal
corners, that way there isn't a corner for the water to sit-in and you
have a much larger seal.
However, to state the obvious: if the tray is moving then you'll need to
fix that first.
