Default Can vinegar damage a DW heating element?

Epoxy...I think I have some of that, in a liquid form that you apply
with a paintbrush. I used it to resurface my cast iron sink after
staining the surface 'porcelain' with brown fabric dye. Does that
sound like the right stuff? Seems like it wouldn't be strong enough
for a heating element, given that you can't put a hot pan in the sink
without damaging it...

I'm clueless here so I won't be hurt to be set straight on these
topics.
