Hello,

I am having some issues with a leaking shower. It is leaking on the seal between the metal frame that holds the glass doors and the tile/grout. It is leaking in one very small area. I would like to patch this area and have tried a couple different silicone based products, but it only works for a couple days and then starts leaking again. I believe it may be leaking from the grout, since my adhesives/caulks I have purchased don't seem to adhere to the grout very well.

My question is: What product can I use to fix this area that will stick to metal (for the door frames), tile, grout, and silicone (to patch the area)? Also, it is extremely hard to dry this area, even when hitting it with hair dryers, etc. for a very long. If anyone has specific product they recommend, that would be great.

Thanks in advance for any help!
 
I wanted to post a picture of the affected area. Sorry, the picture is sideways. You can see the current silicone bead on it now.
