Description

This panel-frame sponge is a soft foam seal used around a control/door panel to cushion, seal, and reduce vibration or rattling. It helps maintain a snug fit between the panel and frame for quieter operation and improved fit. What it does:

• Fills the gap between panel and frame to reduce rattling and vibration
• Provides a cushioning barrier to protect painted or plastic surfaces
• Helps block dust and debris from entering cabinet seams
• Restores worn or compressed foam that can cause loose-feeling panels

What's included: One panel-frame sponge Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing panels or removing trim.
• Remove the panel or trim as needed to access the old sponge; keep fasteners for reassembly.
• Clean the mating surfaces of dirt, grease, and old adhesive before applying the new sponge.
• Some versions use adhesive backing; press firmly to seat. If adhesive is not present, use manufacturer-recommended adhesive or double-sided foam tape rated for appliance use.
