How often one should clean dishwasher racks depends on how often the dishwasher is run. If it is run daily or every other day, the racks should be cleaned monthly with white vinegar. If it is run weekly, then it should be cleaned every 2-3 months. White vinegar is the best cleaner for dishwasher racks.

Disinfect the dish drainer tray at least once a month. When water accumulates in the drainer tray, it creates an environment where germs and bacteria can grow. If you notice any accumulation of water, and any growth of germs or bacterial scum there, then manually drain the accumulated water and disinfect once every two weeks.

You do not have to replace the racks. If you take the racks out wipe them down, you can brush one coat of touch up paint evenly onto each of the dishwasher racks and this should fix the problem.

How do you clean broken glass out of my dishwasher?

Before I begin, I would like to state that I, personally, wouldn't clean broken glass out of YOUR dishwasher. I think your grammar is a bigger problem than your broken glass. You should have been consistent, one of the following would have been much better: 1) How do you clean broken glass out of your dishwasher? 2) How do I clean broken glass out of my dishwasher? 3) How does one clean broken glass out of a dishwasher? To answer: Remove the racks, pick up the big pieces CAREFULLY with your fingers, use a damp stack of a few paper towels for the small pieces (which you can throw directly in the trash after the small pieces stick to it), then run a cycle or two to wash the tiny leftover pieces away.
