Default DISHWASHER DOOR

wrote in message

The nylon rollers have worn a hole in the inside of my dishwasher.

It's 30 years old but the new ones only go 7 years, so I want to keep
it. It's sound mechanically.

How or what should I use to patch the inside of the door?


A thirty year old dishwasher? That's amazing. What brand is it?

My parents home was built in 1969. They've been through at least 4
dishwashers in that time (first a Whirlpool, then a Kitchenaid, then (I
think) another Whirlpool, now a Kenmore). I believe all of these brands are
made by Whirlpool and are considered to be good quality. I can't imagine
that a dishwasher from 1976 is still running...

If you've actually worn through the door, I think it's time to shoot the
puppy in the head, unfortunately. Also I can't imagine it looks terribly
modern anymore...

logic board, pump, and motor) in 2002).
