Can you use this paint on a cast iron stove. Will high temperature ruin it?

Yes,I am not even sure automotive high temp paint would stand up to the firebox heat

No, this paint will not last very long on a cast iron stove. You must seek out paint that has a high temperature rating and is designed for such high temperature purposes. You can Google high temperature paint and find some that are rated for auto engine and exhaust use.

Is some sort of sheet steel and it seems to be durable although I agree with some of the YouTube videos that I've seen you will need to purchase and apply high heat paint to it like in refitting a grill but it will and can serve for number of years. I have used one on several occasions now I would not apply the high heat paint until after the initial paint from the factory wears or burns off. Then clean and sand it then apply paint. Upkeep on this is a part of outdoor kit is necessary to prolong use in life of the stove. I have enjoyed this very much since my purchase.

I bought stove paint for mine, but this says it's good to 2k degrees. If the outside of your stove ever get's hotter than that, I'd leave and call the FD!

Cast iron can withstand temperatures to 500 degrees easily. However, any metal that hot has a degree of expansion; therefore, when you remove it from the oven, place it on the stovetop or a rack and allow to cool a while before placing in water. Otherwise you run the risk of cracking the pan by forcing it to contract too quickly. (Hardly ever happens, but you don't want it to happen to yours.) Also, before you use your pan, season it. Give it a wash in warm water with a small bit of dish soap. then towl dry. Add 1/4 cup vegetable or canola oil and place in a preheated 275 oven for 30 minutes. Remove to stovetop and allow to cool before you discard the oil. Finally, wipe out oil with a lint-free cloth and return to oven for 10 minutes more. then, each time you use it, clean it by swishing with warm soapy water and then rinse well. Wipe dry then finish the drying process by heating on burner for 30 seconds. This way your pan will last forever. Every once in a while I will rub a tablespoon of oil into it before I finish dry it on the stove. Helps prevent sticking. I bake, broil, saute, and grill in mine. I even make soups and sauces in them. My kids especially remember the "Pilgrim Cake" I would bake in my 10" pan. I use a basic two-egg cake recipe and pour the batter into a butter-coated skillet and bake it for 35-40 min at 350. [Also, invest in thick pot holders: this pan gets hot.]

if you want your cast iron to last years with out excess build up of junk, NEVER use cooking spray in your cast iron cookware, cooking sprays will produce a gunk layer that is almost impossible to get out, the only way you can as far a me getting it out was to put it into my self cleaning oven and let it go for a few yours, not only is my cookware clean, and needs to be re-seasoned, but so is my oven. Just a little word of advice, NEVER USE SPRYNG OILS. NONE

Yes and no. I bought the Touch Up that was supposed to be for high heat. I used it to cover some scratches on my cooktop and it looked like new. But the first time I used the burner, the part I had touched up turned brown and basically ruined the top of the cooktop in terms of appearance. Whatever high heat the Porcelain Touch Up is supposed to endure, using the burner is hotter than what it's made for. I would not use it on your stove top. It was fine on my dryer where it got scratched, and which obviously does not get hot.

I don't know that I am qualified to answer this question. I have never used any of my cast iron directly on a gas stove. I hope someone else can give you a definitive answer. You might even be able to contact the company and ask them. You also might find a forum and inquire or even check Lodge's web site to see if anyone has ever posted the question about cooking on a gas stove with cast iron.Best of luck to you,Donna

I have read on some blogs that the seasoning can flake off at higher temps, but I have never had this happen. Cast iron is poured at thousands of degrees so short of pulling it out of the oven and throwing it into a bath tub full of ice water, you should not have any issues. Make sure you have good oven mitts and be aware how heavy this bit of cast iron is when you have a hand full of 500 degree metal.

Yes, you should be able to use this material around the stove area without any issues (as long as these are not directly exposed to fire for extended periods of time). Thank you.

Never tried it... But if you do plan to use it that ways you may damage the outer color and the polish inside the kettle. And also remember that this is made up of cast iron and would be super hot if used with stove top. Let us know how it goes...

Yes you can, it is advised that when using enameled cast iron on any stove that you do not slide the product across stovetops or oven racks, rather if you need to move the pot pick it up. This way, the enamel and the device you are using to heat it are not damaged. I have used enameled cast iron and seasoned cast iron on stove top coils and on flat stove tops with great results from both surfaces.

I'm not an expert, but I do know that there are spray paint that can withstand high heat (specifically bar-b-q's). Maybe there's something equivalent that could be brushed on. I would assume that an appliance paint would not hold up to the heat from a burner. Maybe you could search further on Amazon or other website "high heat paint" or go to your local paint/hardware store for some advise.

Wash with warm soapy water with soft sponge. After drying, rub a bit of cooking oil on it. Ready to go. Never use high heat with anything that's coated. It's common sense. Even for Teflon coated pans you are not to exceed med-to med-high heat. You let it sit on the stove and let it fire up on high heat, it is gonna ruin the coating.

You shouldn't use any CHEMICAL on cast iron. I use super clean, diluted on our smoker, anything stainless steel. Don't use it on painted dials, ie like your BBQ front. It will take the paint off. But for the most part if you used a very diluted solution on the OUTSIDE of your cast iron, rinsed it really well, wipe dry and RE OIL the outside really good,you should be ok. I'd still test a spot first!!

I have used other lodge cast iron and it is fine, it gets a little dirty and you may have to reseason after that or after using at a sustained high heat. I have used this pan on the stove at max temperature and the only thing I noticed was that it warped a little because of the temperature difference between the center and the outside of the pan, but it went back to normal when done. Should not be a problem in the oven.

The Cooktop is glass therefore scratchable, chipable, and breakable. So can you use cast iron? yes, but it is not recommended and the weight and ruggedness of the cast will easily scratch and chip the top. So you have to be careful. The weight of the pots just make it easier to bang the pot on it. I would not use the cast, but it can be done. I have used an allumnium pressure pot seems to work ok. I would say no to cast iron save those for your gas camp stove.. Also it does take longer to heat for example to boil water than the traditional electric.

You could paint it , but use a high temperature paint to prevent it from coming off , as the grill gets very hot .
