Product review (5 stars): Brings dishwasher back to tip-top shape
I've been using the paint on stuff for some time now to keep my racks from getting too rusty. Some of the tines had become very swollen from rust, and continuing to re-coat them was getting cumbersome and did't last very long. These tips are great. Others have commented about how difficult they can be do put on, and some of my tines were hard but those were the ones that were swollen. On the very difficult ones, I just used a pair or wire cutters and clipped the top of the damaged tine off, applied some new liquid, and capped it with one of these.

I've read some other reviewers who said that these come off and potentially damage or clog your dishwasher. My suggestion is to use the liquid repair on the tine, and then place the tip over the liquid. The liquid will dry under the cap and create a bond.

It's a good idea to have the liquid repair on hand, to coat other areas of the rack that cannot accept tines. A design flaw in my dishwasher causes the detergent door to rug against the top rack and causes the coating to come off. I have to keep up on coating that one so it doesn't get too bad. Might end up cutting that section out and just placing a few of these tips on those exposed ends.

My dishwasher looks brand new with these!
