Hello @Liz9 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us and thanks for sharing your question about your dishwasher.

I propose using Selleys® 5g Power Grip Super Strong All Purpose Glue Adhesive. This is one of the best all-purpose adhesives for bonding metal to plastic. It's designed for difficult surfaces, stays flexible, and is resistant to water and shock. I suggest removing any of the old adhesive if possible before you apply this new adhesive. Once the glue is on use a Craftright 300mm 2 Piece Quick Action Clamp or similar to keep the pieces joined together overnight. Please do not over tighten the clamp to prevent damaging the door. Tell the rest of the household not to use the dishwasher for the rest of the evening.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

Good morning Eric,

Thank you so much for your reply, really appreciated it. I will certainly do that and save $180 that someone quoted :).

Have a good week.
