Using this soap dish is easy. Just place your standard bar of soap in it. When it comes to installation, use the provided stainless steel set screw to attach the soap dish to the adjustable stainless steel wall bracket. Make sure to insert the screw through the perimeter of the flange. For maintenance, clean it regularly with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the chrome plating. Also, keep it dry when not in use to prevent any potential rusting, although the Zamac alloy is rustproof. This will help keep your soap dish looking great and functioning well for a long time.
