98QBP0302 Microwave Cavity Spray Paint, 6 oz, Snow White

This works great to freshen up the microwave oven interior on my combo microwave and oven unit. I bought the Snow-White paint color. Its quite expensive to replace the entire combo microwave and baking oven unit that is 10 years old. The microwave works fine as well as the lower oven for baking.The upper interior ceiling of my microwave began to start flaking paint. Probably because we let uncovered cups of water and liquid steam up into the microwave ceiling. Then didn't do a good job of drying of the microwave moist areas with a cloth.Anyway, I read reviews and tips on Amazon of other users and followed the instructions.I turned the power off at the Breaker Panel for the task.I spent a good hour in prep work using blue painters' tape and newspapers to cover the outer areas around the microwave and oven doors to prevent overspray. I was unable to take the microwave outside as it is part of a wall unit. But I also sanded down the microwave ceiling and a couple of vent spots that were flaking. Removed any paint flakes and sanded residue. Then, I thoroughly cleaned the microwave ceiling and walls, and base level. Covered over the unit info label, microwave relay cover.Then I sprayed lightly to start in the ceiling area. Then I went ahead and spread the interior walls and bottom level too. I used light strokes and wore a ventilation mask. The Snow White color matched exactly with my microwave interior. The paint fumes are very strong.I waited about 30-45 minutes and sprayed another light coat. Then applied two more ceiling coats over the next hour afterwards. I waited about 6 hours and applied another upper ceiling coat and then one final coat after another 30-40 minutes. Then let it sit for a full 24 hours. The interior looked very good with matching and felt good by touch. A little coarseness, but nothing significant. I turned the power back on from the breaker panel. Then ran a quick 30 second test to see if the microwave was working ok. It was fine.I actually waited another full day before using the microwave for any heating or cooking items. All is well and it looks brand new inside.Now we are covering cups and containers with liquid to avoid steam and moisture from collecting inside and the ceiling. Also, doing a quick wipe down with a dry cloth on the ceiling afterwards.Its been about a month since I repainted the microwave. Everything looks good and there are no paint issues with flaking.

Honestly, I'm not sure if food safe spray paint really matters, but I didn't want to risk it. I have a microwave that is about 20 years old and over time, the revolving tray had wore away some of the paint at the base. I simply used painter's tape and newspaper to mask off the areas I didn't want to spray and gave this a quick coat. It seems to work well. Just let it air out and keep your microwave open for a few days before you use it again. After a day, I didn't smell anything paint related.

Bought this for my microwave and followed the instructions carefully. Really did a lot of prep work on the entire inside and redid it all, although the seam in the back was really the bad part. So after everything was all sanded down and clean, I sprayed it per instructions. Worked pretty well, small spray can made it fairly simple to apply. Sprayed out smoothly. and covered fairly well. (spray can was barely enough to completely spray the interior). I have a nice white microwave interior again, although this paint dries to a sort of flat finish, not gloss like the factory paint. I don't care for that due to the fact that it might make it more susceptible to staining and somewhat more difficult to clean. Time will tell. Otherwise, no issues... I recommend.

Worked great. Honestly I told my husband we should buy a new microwave but he was determined to fix it! It looks great. It looks brand new.

I wished I'd of taken a picture before this can arrived. I thought I'd have to replace the microwave. I just have to look up how to fix the problem of peeling paint in my microwave and found this product. The interior of the microwave was very bad. It was bare metal in places.I scraped the peeling paint off till it wouldn't come off anymore. Then I used fine grit sandpaper (actually used a cordless orbital sander) to smooth it out. Hint, turn the exhaust fan on and this will massively help with dust from a mechanical sander. I papered and taped off the walls of the unit. Actually, not really needed as I'll explain. I sprayed about 3 layers (every 10 minutes) and thought I was done with 2/3 of a can still left over. The next day I put the glass table back inside, but noticed a paint chip where previous sprayed. So, I redid the spraying, but not with the walls papered. I put multiple coats on and there's only a little bit left in the can. Looks great and has a much more durable finish on it with the 8 layers I sprayed on. There was no noticeable issues with my spraying without taping off the walls. Just wipe it down and the surrounding area and you'll save big bucks by just using this paint.

Paint itself seems to work well -- depending upon WHERE you paint. If your microwave is like mine, with a turntable, the (factory) paint wore off in the path of the little wheels that turn the glass table. (NOTE: My oven is at least 10 years old.) I read the paint can's directions thoroughly, scraping off all the old, loose paint and rust. The paint says use it in a well-ventilated area; I suggest you wait for a nice, low-humidity day and use the paint outdoors. (It smells quite bad.) Make sure you allow the paint to dry thoroughly before bringing it indoors; I also waited 24 hours before re-installing the turntable and using the microwave.Results: Within 2 months, the paint had been worn off by the turntable wheels, and I'm back where I started before painting. So -- I guess if you're repainting someplace that will NOT get any wear, this paint will work fine. Under turntable wheels, not so much.PREVENTION ADVICE: Make sure your microwave oven is clean and DRY after each use. Some foods, such as potatoes, generate a lot of steam/moisture in the oven -- which drained UNDER the turntable. I didn't always notice the moisture, and that's what caused the rusting in the first place.
