My wife says that the disk rack that's basically plastic wrapped
around stiff metal wire is chipping off causing the metal to begin to
rust. She says that she replaces these racks like every 3 or 4
years. Any suggestions how to repair it or is there a disk rack
that won't rust and last much longer? I think she mentioned bamboo
but I prefer non-wood unless no choice.


Buy her a dishwasher and eliminate the rack. Saves water and dishes
are more sanitary.

If you must, it can be fixed with a plastic material used to dip tool
handles. Just apply and let set, repeat if needed. Or buy an all
plastic one.

We've had dishwashers for the past 40 years or so and have not needed
a drying rack since. Go ahead, treat the lady.
