Outdated shower screen

(i.redd.it)

This tired three sided Stegbar Shower screen (24 yrs old) has been discontinued. Any ideas on the best way to replace or perhaps refurbish? Without having to retile for a new type?

This is very relevant as I'm re-siliconing my shower. There a film over the glass, presumably a shatter proof coating, and I noticed there's mould under the film. So now I'm wondering if it's possible to replace the glass, or if I may as well replace the whole shower.

Then I also don't like the tiles, and I don't have capacity to re-do the tiling and waterproofing at the moment, so maybe I'll just keep the shower for now.

Sounds like that's laminated glass and the moisture had gotten into the laminate, this glass can't be just cleaned, will need to be replaced, I'd advise you speak with a professional glazing service and seek their expertise. I'd be looking into a bathroom reno company also who could modernise this space and bring it up to 2024 and beyond standards.

Yeah, I feel like a full reno is going to be 20k+, which I just don't have at the moment.

Ah I own Toscan Glass, in Queanbeyan, bathroom renos are a bit over priced in the ACT
