A spatter shield is provided which is attached to a lower portion of the inner door of a dishwasher at a location above and inside the upper edge of the enclosure tub. This shield includes a flange area for deflecting fluid splashed toward the dishwasher opening back into the tub when the door is closed. A channel is provided which is shielded by the flange area for receiving run-off fluid from the flange area when the door is open and for discharging that run-off into the tub when the door is closed. The shield can extend horizontally along a substantial length of the door and is preferably attached to the door by way of a rib on the door which is received in a toothed slot of the shield. The teeth within the slot permit the rib to be inserted relatively easily but resist withdrawal of the rib. These teeth are preferably co-extruded with the rest of the shield from a plastic composition that is relatively flexible with respect to the material forming rest of the shield. -17-
