i wash my dishes in the dish washer but every time i empty it my silver ware and excellent knives that i love have rusty spots all over them and i can't get them off. what causes that and how can i prevent it?Why do my silverware and good knives rust in the dish washer?
to take off the spots of rust take the utensils put them in a medium bowl put whit vinegar and a bit of water over night....
you will see no spots... maybe you will if you do take silver wear polish rub on the utensils and they for sure will go off!
good luck!!!!!! all the best....Why do my silverware and good knives rust in the dish washer?
Silver does not rust. It will tarnish. Dishwasher detergent is very caustic, Silver really should not be washed in a dishwasher, I would hand wash and dry immediately.
As for knives. A good knife should never be washed in a dishwasher. Getting knocked around and banging into other utensils is not going to do it any good. And since it is rusting it is obviously not stainless steel and will rust because the detergent is reactive and they have water on them for a prolonged period.
Either you have very hard water, and the iron in the water is being deposited on your utensils, or the plating is pitted on your silverware and knives, and the metal underneath is rusting.
