Does what it's supposed to
I used this on an older dishwasher that already had a lot of rusting and after two coats it seems to be holding up. The only complaint I have is that I wish the paint was a little thicker so it could wrap around trouble spots a little better. Kit comes with a built in brush (like a nail polish bottle)and end caps.
Whirlpool Dishwasher Rack Repair Kit
I was planning to buy a new dishwasher to replace my old dishwasher because of a rusty dish rack. I was searching for a product that could repair the dish rack first before spending for a new dishwasher and I came to this product and tried it. Well the vinyl touch up is about 4oz. and the tine tips is 150pcs. which is more than enough for my needs. The secret for a successful repair is to remove all the rust and I used a circular steel brush (like this one "Hobart 770390 Circular Shank Power Brush, 3-CIR/CRS") with my drill and this "Ingersoll-Rand Die Grinder Stones" which really helps. I triple coat the rack and it looks like new. Take your time and do not rush your work, because at the end your satisfaction comes from how well you did your job. Great product!

I have a 10 year old Whirlpool dishwasher which is in very good working order, (runs w/o incident, cleans well, low noise). Amongst its minor issues is a soap dispensor lid which doesn't open ( so I don't snap it shut afer adding the detergent, the clear film over the operating mode selection buttons cracked and wore thru after 2 years of use, and the vinyl covered steel dish holding rack started wearing thru about a year ago. The rusted wire started depositing rust stains on the cleaned dishes recently so I sought a fix. My thoughts of an out-right rack replacement were dashed when I found the price to be about $150 including shipping. A new similar model dishwasher was about $350. After some research I came across this recoating product. I bougth the whirlpool labeled version thinking it might be more taylored to my appliance. After cleaning...
