Repaint your old peeling microwave

The paint inside an old microwave or one which gets used an awful lot may eventually start to peel. Rather then replace the microwave, you may opt to repaint the interior. However, slapping a coat of any old paint over the peeling paint is not going to work. The paint will peel again, quickly. Instead, you’ll have to carefully remove the peeling paint then paint the outside with a unique form of microwave safe paint.

Skill level: Moderate

1. 1

   Get the within of the microwave ready for repainting. Unplug the microwave. Use a sponge soaked in soapy water to take away dirt and grease. Use a dishtowel or a clean dry rag to wipe the within dry.

2. 2

   Scrape off the peeling paint using a putty knife. With an outstanding-grit sandpaper, smooth any rough sections and take away any rust. Wipe and dry the sanded parts and spray them with a rust prevention spray.
