Part #2 in the diagram.

I think I can sand it and repaint information technology in place, but I'd probably need to brush something on.

Is there a rust converter paint that is gloss white that would work?

Also, how hard is replacing this part?

I am non and then happy with the quality of this auto compared to cheaper ones I had in the by especially with gear bug and now this paint problem.

I think when I buy once again I am going with Speed Queens.

I take a rusty expanse on my washer's summit right nether the bleach dispenser, repaint in place or supersede.

The best matter for you to do is remove the plastic bleach dispenser from the meridian, wire castor or sand of the rust best you can, and but touch up those spots. Any of the home centers has "Appliance Pigment" in a spray tin. The washer top is porcelain enamel that'due south broiled on. If you attempt to paint over it, information technology will just chip off. To get the top up:

Turn off the water supply to the washer and remove ability. Tape the lid down. Remove top screw from each hinge and remove wire harness comprehend.

Slide the top frontward about 1/two"

And so lift the peak about one/4" and slide it back about i/4". Elevator the meridian and tilt it back out of the style. Yous can now remove the bleach dispenser:

I agree with you. The VMW is not ane of Whirlpool's best machines only switching to Speed Queen, you might be going from bad to worse. Speed Queen is a subsidiary of Alliance Laundry Systems LLC, which manufacturers commercial laundry equipment. To be fair and honest, I haven't worked on many Speed Queens for a few years now but they had transmission and bearing problems in the by. The replacement parts are expensive compared to other brands. The machines are not that cheap either. A depression stop model runs between $800-$1,000. If yous're not totally against front load machines, you can probably become a improve car for less.

I started researching this evening and LG'south seem to exist ameliorate.

Oh no, now you're going from worse to junk! That's just my stance simply it'south also the consensus among service techs. Samsung and LG are probably the two worst brands on the market. JMO

I can probably spray information technology better from the top and mask off the lesser by removing that bleach dispenser.

Don't spray it and don't paint the bottom if it doesn't need it. Pick up an artists brush when you lot get the paint. Spray some paint into the paint can cap and use the artists brush to cover the rust spots. Dab it on. Go over it two or three times letting the paint dry in between coats. That style will requite you the least amount of problems.

Is there a practiced rust converter to use? I used 3M Mar-Hyde on the heavy steel grating that protects my workshop windows near v+ years ago and it fabricated them a squeamish black color and they take been rust-costless since.

Mar-hyde Ane Stride Rust Converter Primer Sealer - 1 Quart

Where my rust is doesn't make sense to pop the top if I am going to brush it on. I have a tin can of apparatus white in my workshop actually already, I retrieve I have some Mar-Hyde left too.

What's a skilful make to get with for my next ready? I am hoping to upgrade these at the side by side failure. Fifty-fifty the dryer seems not to dry well sometimes (my exhaust vent is almost direct straight out of the firm and clear). These weren't cheap and Whirlpool nearly instantly phased them out for larger capacity machines merely a couple months after I bought them.

Just an update. I took apart the automobile and fixed the rust, nonetheless; more bug kept happening (which I found this model is lightning sensitive an my control boards blew).

I went to a GE and while I gave them up for years, this new one GTW680BSJWS. It cleans so much better and FASTER than my cabrio. We can't believe information technology. Information technology was also cheaper than what I paid for my Cabrio years ago.
