Folks who have painted a cast iron stove know that there is a difference between the many kinds of "normal" paint (like automotive paint) and paint designed for high heat. There is such a thing as oven paint or microwave paint or cast iron stove paint: They are made to withstand high heat and avoid emitting toxic gases in high heat. Pro painters also know that when one is trying to paint a patch, feathering it in smoothly with existing glossy paint (like on any appliance), it is necessary to lightly sand the existing glossy paint with a fine grit sandpaper (like 220) so that the new paint adheres well with the old paint and does not flake off later. It's the same principle used to resurface roads, glue nonporous materials, etc. For all these reasons, I really appreciated a different KZitem video "How to repaint inside your microwave - fix interior rust and peeling." I'm not related or friends with that KZitemr -- I just think he did the job right, matched the original color well, and produced a result that would not have to be redone later.

Seasider48 / Enamel Appliance touch-up paint is available from most appliance part distributors, often in a small brush-on bottle. That is probably the best product to use, however I don't think it varies much in content from the rustoleum product. Since its unlikely that you will have any food contact with the product unless it flakes off and gets into the food, but that would be bad no matter what product you use. Thetefore, it is always advisable to cover your food while cooking it, and inspect the cavity when you are cleaning it for signs of loose paint.

This may be for legal reasons and it may or may not be a hazard. However, it's not designed and tested for that use, It may have lead in it or something and if a flake or chip fell into an open container, well that would not be good. I guess it depends. My rust is a small spot on the bottom of the microwave under the rotating platter, so I might risk it but I wish there was some sort of silicone sealant . I think silicone is pretty inert and suitable for high temps.

I'm trying to attempt to repair my microwave on my own. My microwave still works but the paint is chipping off. The damage is at the bottom floor of the turntable. My issue is that the repair is not just a mere spot here and there like in your video, so I don't think a small bottle is sufficient. When buying the paint should I get the same paint like you have but in more quantity or does it only come in that small bottle? I am not also able to read the bottle that you showed in the video. There is too much shadow inside the microwave for me to read it just by the lamp light you have. It was too dark. There's a Walmart close to my home. What paint should I ask for? Thanks

Yes Emmanuel. My family ruined the paint under the carousel by overflowing soup or something over the tray and not cleaning it up. It pooled there unnoticed for days, during which the paint came off and it started to rust. We're remodeling the whole house, so once I discovered and drained it, fixing it was not our highest priority for months. There has been no change in its performance or safety since then. We're only now getting around to fixing it.

ashish ganjewar yes, you can use it. but you will need to mask the areas where the vent holes are, and mask the wave guide (thats usually a piece of plastic or mica sheet that covers where the magnetron antenna is). Do your cleaning and preperation, spray your affected areas, then let it dry with the door open a minimum of 24 hours before you use it.

manoj prakash: Usually, the base metal is silver, however once it rusts, it becomes brownish in color. If you are doing spot repair, you only need to remove all the loose paint and loose rust scale. the metal is not very thick. if you attempt to grind on it, you could accidentally grind through, which is not repairable.

Sometimes people have to work within a budget that they have. I know radical concept...

Shalandra Collins I have not tried a full scale re-spray, but I think that if you had it thoroughly cleaned, scuffed the old paint with steel wool a little, and masked the wave guide, door and vent areas, you could use Rustoleum spray enamel sucessfully.
