Rusty SA Squares: How to Remove Rust Before Replacing Dishwasher

In summary, if you notice visible rust or leaks from your dishwasher's SA squares, it may be time to replace them. However, you can try removing rust with a rust remover or vinegar and baking soda mixture. To prevent rust, it is recommended to clean the SA squares once a month with mild detergent and warm water. It is important to use a rust remover specifically designed for kitchen appliances. When installing new SA squares, be sure to turn off the power, clean the area, and securely tighten the screws.

So I noticed that I have some rust on my SA squares. They are from my dishwasher which is currently rusting through:eek: Any idea on how to get the rust off? We plan on getting a new dishwasher after our trip in July
 
Try Barkeeper's Friend!
That also helps with the black scratch marks that sometimes get on SA pieces!
 
Correl cleaner works well, too. I also might give Soft Scrub a try.
