Hi 
Hi there years ago I repaired a servis outer tub, sand it down and use something like finnigans number 1 primer then a couple of coats of hammerrite , it should last a long while. Wow you must have hard water down there , ours is so soft you never get any scale in the kettle never mind washer !

Enamel Repair Mathew Take a look at this pic of my Indesit 092. I gave the area a light sanding, treated it with Kurust and finished off with Pratley's Putty. I then sanded the putty to the shape of the drum. You can then apply some Hammerite, although I never bother with that.

I have never seen scale on anything to this degree. It looks like the heater was patched over with concrete! I have seen field stone foundations in old houses that have less mortar than your heating element! I'd replace it if possible and as for the drum, I'd sand it down and apply a product like POR-15 (rust inhibitor and proofer) to prevent any further damage. | ||
