I have a Whirlpool dishwasher, Model # DU1100XTP08. One of the tabs that hold the basket for spoons, knives, etc. is broken. I am wanting to try to glue it back on. I started to use "gorrilla glue", but the directions says it is not recommended for polyethylene or polypropylene plastics. Not knowing exactly what kind of plastic the dishwasher liner is made of, I didn't use it. Does anyone know what kind of glue may work, or if it will work at all? Thanks for the help.... Steve

Hi,


DU1100XTP08

Might that be DU1100XTPQ8 ??


One of the tabs that hold the basket for spoons, knives, etc. is broken

On the basket itself?

We use to use a two part epoxy....but most that I see are now NLA.
There are some good food grade silicones, but I doubt that would hold a tab.
