    A microwave question....

    Hi all,

    You just never know who knows what on this forum

    I have a microwave that has an issue. The paint inside the mircowave (under the glass plate) has flaked off.

    Does anyone know if I can repaint it? Is there a particular paint product that would be suitable/safe to use?

    Or... do I just throw it in the bin?

    Cheers Nat

    Thanks for that I was assuming it would be enamel.

    Special microwave oven cavity paint is available but any common gloss enamel will work just as well (and costs about 1/10th as much). Use touch-up paint (with a small brush) or spray paint. The typical color is beige, almond, or some other form of off-white - just match it to your oven (if you care).
    Just hope they're right

    WES components in sydney sell paint for microwaves, however touch ups are only for small amounts. If its a lot of paint missing a new cavity should be what u need, thats if its worth it.
