    Shower Stall Leaks
    The glass panel that sits on a tiled half wall between the shower and garden bath tub is leaking. When slight pressure is applied to the aluminum track that the glass sits in, it actually moves back and forth. The leak has bubbled the paint on the drywall just above the tile. I am preparing to repaint the bathroom, but need to stop this leak first. What is the best way to seal this leak?

    The track must be secured in order to limit the chance leak.

    U can silicone track on both sides, but because of movement the leak may return.

    If u can supply a picture, would be easier to help.

    Attached are 3 pictures of the shower stall track that is loose (when apply slight pressure to the center of the track, see it move 1/8-1/16th of an inch) and leaking. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
