Caulk or sealant
Pilgrim fired this volley in news

Does anyone know of a caulk or sealant that will adhere to stainless
steel, such as that in a dishwasher?
Thanks, CP
If you're willing to slightly rough up the surface, most any silicone
caulk will stick.
However, I'm really partial to Lexel clear polyacrylate sealant. It
darned near will stick to a pat of butter, and is very strong and
flexible when dry. It will even adhere pretty strongly to sanded PTFE.
It is solvent-based, so it will shrink some with drying, but not more
than about 30%.
