Self Clean Shower Glass

Is this truly self clean or do you still need to wipe everything dry with a towel ?

It's truly self-clean.  At our old house I had to attack the shower screen every week with de-scaling stuff, squeegees, etc, and even then it looked pretty cloudy a day or two later, ever when running a squeegee over it after every shower.

 

Here in the new house the self-cleaning glass just stays clean.  All we ever do is occasionally point the hand-held shower head over it to wash off any soap or shampoo splashes.  We have a squeegee to hand in the shower, but haven't yet felt the need to use it.

In our previous house we had hard water. The coating on the screen worked and extended time between giving it a good scrub, but the coating did seem to lose its effect after many years (perhaps 5 or 6 years).

 

In our current house we have softened water and the screen does not need scrubbing, now in year 3, but we have given it a good wash a few times.
