Microwave paint
Our microwave is 7 years old and had many areas where the paint had worn off in the cavity and rust was forming. Considered buying a new microwave, but since it worked perfectly, decided to re-paint the damaged areas instead. Per the instructions on the paint can, all rust needed to be removed prior to painting so considerable time was used get the rust out, then it was time to paint.
Per the warning on the paint can, adequate ventilation was needed, and let me tell you, they weren't kidding. This paint stinks! Also, caution needed to be used because it is highly flammable. I had concerns that the paint smell would linger inside the microwave, thus making any food cooked taste and smell terrible, but that wasn't the case. The paint did stink up the house, even with all windows opened when it was sprayed into the microwave nook, but it was totally dried within 12 hours, and only has a slight odor remaining.
My husband used the microwave the following morning without any problems, but I waited an additional 24 hours before I used it, just to make certain the paint had cured. The paint has held up, isn't lifting, there is no lingering odor and even better, our microwave looks great!
