Makes your rack look new
This is a great little product. Came exactly as described. Made our 10 year old dishwasher rack look brand new! Only noticed the smell during the application, which dissipated quickly once applied and did not linger. As others have said, you must act quickly and plan your application accordingly as the bottle of liquid vinyl coating dries quickly - almost too quickly.
The directions suggest squeezing the air out of each vinyl cap, then placing two drops of liquid vinyl on the end of the cap, then releasing the air so the liquid vinyl is essentially 'sucked' into the cap. You then place the cap on each tine of the dishwasher. In theory this works fine, but in practice this was hard to do, especially as the liquid vinyl starts getting thick as soon as you open the bottle as it starts drying, itdoes not like to be 'sucked' into the vinyl cap very easily. Thus I found it much easier and just as effective, to brush the liquid vinyl on each tine first, using the supplied...
Uber Goop
I only tried this on the bottom rack of the dishwasher to start with. It covered the rust spots well and the caps were good for covering the rusted/worn ends. We have run the dishwasher a few times since applying it and the caps and covering are staying on and we no longer have bits of rust floating around in the water or stuck to the dishes. But we have noticed a sticky residue on some of the dishes and utensils after they are washed. It washes off easily, but it is kind of a nuisance to have to rinse the dishes when we take them out of the dishwasher. I don't know for certain that this residue is from the Uber Goop, but we have not changed soaps or done anything differently, and it has only appeared since I applied the Uber Goop and caps to the bottom rack.
Wonderful item!
This product saved my dishwasher. I moved into my new home to find the racks in the fairly new dishwasher to have rusty tops and some rusted cross beams. I used a rotary tool to take away the rust and then used the liquid vinyl and the tops to cover. That was 10 weeks ago and it has been great ever since. I highly recommend this as a step before replacing your rack(s).
