Home Depot or Lowe's by the Kitchen Faucet Repair.
I have found 2 styles there. I also have a Regency. Just used it last night. Great Cleaning Machine. The Regency takes the "Larger" or Fatter one. there are also slightly smaller ones that work for my KD2-P and Mobile Maid. They are there. Look by the Faucet Aerators. |

Joelle:
Be sure and use only food-safe materials on that top; regular furniture-finishing stuff is toxic. A light sanding with fine sandpaper, a rubdown with No. 0000 steel wool and some applications of mineral oil, and you'll be good to go. Mineral oil is in every drug store, where it's sold as a intestinal lubricant, meaning it's safe if ingested. |

The nice thing about mineral oil is that it's heavier and denser than meat juices, so it helps prevent them from soaking into the wood. You do have to do what Eddie did and apply multiple coats, so the wood becomes saturated with the mineral oil - that fills the pores of the wood with the oil, so nothing else can soak in easily.

That ACE doesn't sound anything like the one I frequent. Well, mine does have a bunch of young dudes working there, but they also have a good number of all-knowing seasoned employees on duty.
It's preposterous that it was even suggested the part isn't available "for a machine that old." It's a standardized part and a universal fit for all makes of portable dishwashers, and even portable clothes washers for that matter -- even older machines than yours. |
