Expert Reply:
I took a look at the install instructions of the Lippert Components Shower Pan for RVs # LC210377 and there is a note that states: "All caulks, adhesives, sealants MUST be compatible with ABS" so when installing the pan be sure that any adhesive you use clearly states it is compatible with ABS.
Additionally, when cleaning the pan, the manual states there are certain cleaners that are not to be used, such as disinfectant sprays, disinfectant foams, pine oil cleaners, citrus-based cleaners, and petroleum-based products. I have sent you the link with the installation manual as well so you can take a look.
