Teak Shower Tray
Teak shower trays by MTI are designed to fit each individual multi-threshold shower pan. Teak finish may be
kept natural, stained or periodically treated with oil.
Teak wood is inherently protected by its own natural oils and dense grain. Left in its natural state, the shower
tray will assume a silver-gray patina over time.
The teak shower tray can be stained to prolong its initial golden color, or darkened if desired. Any
water-based stain may be used; there are multiple color options available.
Teak oil may be applied to condition and darken the wood and can be found at most local hardware stores.

Care and Cleaning Instructions – Teak Shower Tray
The teak tray should be cleaned every 30–90 days, depending on usage. MTI recommends the
mildest cleaner possible for the job. A small amount of dish soap or liquid laundry detergent (such
as Wisk) applied with a sti brush will clean most teak products. Leave detergent on the wood for
several minutes, allowing time to suspend the dirt. Scrub lightly with the grain and rinse thoroughly.
Use soft cloth to wipe down rubber strips on the underside of the tray — do not scrub. To order
replacement strips, please contact MTI’s service department.
There is a variety of teak cleaning products on the market, often sold where boating supplies are
sold. Teak tray may be sealed with products such as Captain's Varnish. Please follow manufacturers’
directions for proper application.
Fine grit sandpaper may be used to remove heavy stains. Always sand with the wood grain.
NOTE: If a teak tray is used in conjunction with a frameless shower enclosure, a small notch may
need to be made in the teak tray to accomodate the bottom glass clip of the enclosure.
