Shipping speed? Faster than my morning coffee kick. Replacement parts? Perfect fit. Online tutorial videos? Better than anything on Netflix right now. Dishmaster made a DIY repair feel like a walk in the park. Thanks for the quick delivery and for making me look incredibly competent!
Always good to apply grease to new parts
The grease worked like a charm lubricating the new seals and diverter.
worked like a charm
Faucet is like new again thanks
Great product.
I like to tinker. We like our Dishmaster. However, those who have only tried an old tired unit may not enjoy one because it might not work as designed.
Recently, we took ours apart and finished repairing it back to factory standards.
Our used unit, purchased off Ebay, is now working as it should.
It only takes one finger to open the valve, and your little finger can shut the water off easily and quickly.
Like the reviewers before me, I put a tiny amount on the diverter valve and it now works flawlessly.
I upgraded our cold water valve to a new stem, and used a bit of the silicone grease to lubricate it prior to assembly, both on the threads and the O-rings.
Both the hot and cold water valves now work as Dishmaster intended them to, and I attribute part of the fix to the correct silicone seal.
It is a small detail with a small price, but a worthwhile tube to have in your tool arsenal.
The tube will last a lifetime if you don't go overboard when you apply it.
Now that my unit has new seats, one new stem, and a gentle application of silicone lubricant, it should be trouble-free for many months.
The grease works great. I put a few drops on the diverter lever and it has stopped sticking!
Just the right extra bit to help the o-rings complete the seal.
Silicone is silicone but this container is easy to handle and harder to lose than most. I was able to get more silicone where I wanted and less where I didn’t
Thank you for your review. We wish to address your 'silicone is silicone' comment. It is important to note that the silicone grease that we sell is certified to ANSI-NSF 61 for our customer's health and safety.
NSF/ANSI 61: Drinking Water System Components – Health Effects:
an American National Standard that establishes minimum health-effects requirements for the chemical contaminants and impurities that are indirectly imparted to drinking water from products, components and materials used in drinking water systems.
My rental agency wanted to replace my whole Dish Master 2000 because of a dribble from the diverter. Over $350, plus install. Instead, I replaced the seals, in about 10 minutes, for $13.

We had been having a hard time with our diverter due to our hard water here, but once we put the new one on using the grease it has worked like a charm. Love Dishmaster!
The silicone grease worked like a champ. The video was great…even for my plumber…together we got it taken care of.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my DISHMASTER!!!! My parents had one when I was a kid (1950's). One from my inlaws in (1967) that I took with me on 3 moves and I still have it (55 years later)!!! It's for sure that I will NEVER be without one!!!!!
Sorry but I have not used it yet, but I am glad to have it when I do need it.
This grease, clear, and not too messy, helped with the reassembly and functionality of my Dishmaster Imperial IV. I'll remember to keep it on hand whenever the Dishmaster gets serviced.
Over the decades we have had seven or eight Dishmasters and love them. Got the valve renewal kit for the one at our cottage because after twenty plus years it started to leak. Replaced the valve and it now works smoother than it did when it was new. The unit we are using at home had a sticky diverter which was a bit unhandy when turning on the faucet with the brush pointed at the operator. After trying WD-40 (which did not work and then reading the on line help) we ordered the plumber's silicone which worked great. Love you guys.

P88693 grease is not the fix for the problem you describe. Our notes indicate that you are on a well. Please follow this link for the procedure to clear debris from the cartridge: https://dishmasterfaucet.com/pages/p4030-diverter-cartridge

I have not yet used this product. I bought it to keep on hand in case the diverter assembly sticks again.
If you have even slightest hardness in your water, the application of silicone grease will aid in future disassembly of faucet parts that come in contact with your water like the diverted core and it’s retaining ring.
Diverted valve now longer sticks
Great having the silicone grease in a tube for easier controlled delivery to the tight spots!
