Why causes rust marks and fog on my cutlery and crockery washed in a clean dishwasher ?

my dishwasher is cleaned with a proper cleaner, I use salt included with the cleaning tab and have tried it on it's own + a cleaning tab + rinse agent but suddenly I'll get rust on knife blades and rust marks on china. can anyone explain why and how to stop itWhy causes rust marks and fog on my cutlery and crockery washed in a clean dishwasher ?
you have too mch dish washer salt in it try reducing the amount you use and see if that helps.





This is why when you use rinse aid and other products it still happens, as the salt is still there or try using a less harsh salt product for your machineWhy causes rust marks and fog on my cutlery and crockery washed in a clean dishwasher ?
Even stainless steel will rust in the presence of salt and bombarding glass with salt will ruin the surface and cause pitting that makes the glass appear cloudy. Wash by hand, better for your crockery and cutlery and the environment - who wants to pay for tap water to be cleaned of salt and other additives?
have you tried descaling your pipes to the dishwasher especially iif you live in a hard water area, give that a try.


buy some descaler for it and rinse it through before you do anymore. these things happen, even to your washing machne.
If your cutlery is not stainless steel they will rust, which then leaves marks on your crockery too..you can only put things that don't rust into your dishwasher.
I would have guessed to switch your washing method. We had to switch detergents from liquid to that powder jetdry stuff.
dont be so lazy and wash and dry them by hand then you wouldnt have to worry.
Have your water tested.
