What temperatures are required to cure the paint multiple times at various temperatures in an oven? Will the final coating survive any contact with food?

Can this paint be cured w/ a blowtorch for items that can't be stuck in an oven? And is this paint safe to use on indoor items (e.g. are there any toxic odors emitted when heated?)? Thx in advance for any/all answers!

24 hours AFTER painted - place in oven one hour @ 175 degrees. A second curing a few hours later is sometimes helpful.Any contact with food in either direction is bad. (part to food / food to part)Make sure wife is out of town.Cook 2 or 3 pizzas one after another to help disguise smell.

Hi Donna, I have used mine many times at 425 degrees without any problem. It does not have a non-stick finish, but I find that spraying it with cooking spray helps keep food from sticking.

Sorry. I haven't cooked anything at 500 degrees. I usually just use it for chicken or turkey in a 350 degree oven. If you want to glaze a ham I would pull out the probe first, add glaze and then put it in a hot oven for a few minutes.

Good question! The paints made for the inside of a microwave oven are usually enamel. Rust-Oleum High Heat is an enamel paint. The inside walls of a microwave oven do not reach the temperature levels that Rust-Oleum High Heat paint is designed to withstand -- 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit. If you touch the inner wall of a microwave right after cooking, it may be warm, but that is about it. There really is no reason for you to purchase this paint for the inside of a microwave. If you do a search on Amazon for microwave cavity paint you will come up with several products, including one by Rust-Oleum, specifically designed for the inside of your microwave.

I believe it would be ok because once you bake the paint (around 300 degrees), as I did with the wine glasses I painted --it is resisted to any wear from a dishwasher which is water and heat...

I just looked on Chefs web cite and they say it is oven safe...to what temperature I do not know.

I've used it up to 400° and so far so good. I don't think there is anything on the packaging material that says anything about oven temp.

Temp reaches 50 which I believe is 500 degrees. It gets hot enough. Bad thing is paint finish will scrape off easily at high temps. Be warned.

I have never needed to take it to that high a temp. I would think you could depending on the length of time it will be in the oven at that degree. The manufacturer should be able to give you this information.

A wooden oven door? That's interesting. I suspect the Thermo-Tec will not stick well to wood. Perhaps you could paint the wood first with a high temperature paint. After the paint dries, apply the Thermo-Tec to the paint.

I would recommend following the guidelines for oven use. I've never tried it myself but another person has answered that it's safe up to 400 degrees. Take into consideration your particular oven if you intend to try that, since temperatures vary in degrees of heat.

I doubt it. It warps, changes color, stinks, and thins out when used on a baking sheet under the max temperature per package directions. I would try a different brand. I would worry that it would damage the bottom of the oven, or bake itself onto it, or something else dangerous.

Hey Eileen- I'm not sure exactly which aspect of 'safe' you're looking for but i baked a plate that i had drawn on with an oil based sharpie- the only issue i had was that the deaign came out kind of speckled but since it was uniform throughout the design it was kinda cool, i haven't tried it again to see if it was a fluke or not- i've read that using the oil sharpies then baking makes the plates food & dishwasher safe- i don't know how true that is, but i've read it several places. I found your question because i'm making wine glasses tomorrow- some places say bake them & one said the heat will cause it to break-- i guess i'll find out tomorrow!! I hope this helped!

Are you putting it outside in the weather? I have only used on glass and bake it on for durability. The paint can be used on plexiglass but if it can't be baked it may not stay on.

I am not sure if this paint is heat resistant. I would assume it is and it is reasonable in cost so it could be worth an experiment. The bottle does not say it is heat resistant. If you want a guaranteed heat resistant paint, I would use Pebeo "Vitrea 160". This is a glass stain that can be baked in the oven to make it heat resistant. Your heat from the lightbulbs would serve as the heating source, thus becoming permanent. It is also a high quality paint and so it costs more.......but you get what you pay for.

Unfortunately there were no markings as to the safe temperature but it is a standard chrome finish which should last far beyond what a typical oven can put out.
