4396840RC Whirlpool Dishwasher Rack Repair Kit – Fix Your Dishwasher Rack That Has Rust Spots, Torn Vinyl Coating, Exposed Metal, Damaged Tines, or Chipped Coating

The 4396840RC is a genuine OEM dishwasher rack repair kit designed to restore damaged dishwasher racks without the expense of full rack replacement. This comprehensive kit includes vinyl coating patches, adhesive, and tools to repair rust spots, torn coating, exposed metal, and damaged areas on both upper and lower dishwasher racks.

Over time, dishwasher rack coating can chip, tear, or wear away from repeated use, high heat, and contact with dishes. When the protective vinyl coating is damaged, the underlying metal becomes exposed to moisture and detergent, leading to rust formation. Rust spots can transfer to dishes, stain cookware, and eventually cause structural damage to the rack.

This repair kit provides a cost-effective solution to extend the life of your dishwasher racks. The kit includes grey vinyl coating material that matches most dishwasher racks, strong adhesive for secure bonding, and application tools for professional-looking repairs. Simple to use, the patches adhere to clean, dry rack surfaces and create a durable, waterproof seal that prevents further rust and damage.

IMPORTANT: Clean and dry damaged areas thoroughly before applying patches for best adhesion. Allow proper curing time before using the dishwasher.
