Will the white paint used to white coating flake off or be dangerous to the bird in any way?

I have had my cage about 8 months and haven't had any problems but my bird doesn't chew on the cage bars. I make sure she has plenty of chew toys.

No it will not. I have a cockatiel and she's in it all the time. It stills looks like the way it was when I bought it.

I have no experience with that paint and can't say yes or no. My general feeling is paints have some volatile matter which might give out fumes and would might affect the food & health. Just take metal brush run with it around and apply oil. It should be ok. I got a cover as well for this grill, but didn't do much benefit. I could see rust all over the place. So I turned back to old method (brush and oil). Planning to keep it in the basement or in garage when not in use.

The Deoxit could crack the finish. I would avoid any spray on the paint/finish, especially if it is a Nitro finish.

You might want to contact the corporation. I highly suspect YES, the coating is safe (not sure about birds). The thing is, yes, this and that is safe; years later we are told, oppsie, no it wasnt. I just know, we have to face these things in so many areas of our lives. Do your homework,so you feel somewhat secure. Hope for the best. I do love all my Anolon Bronze pans, I have quite a few. Just remember, these and other newer coated pans call for medium to medium-low heat. Have patience in allowing the pan/s to warm up before you start cooking.

Yes you will need paint and glue. It could be left white if you did not want to paint the model. It's a very detailed plastic model for an intermediate to experienced builder.

yes! definitely. I'd suggest something like acrylic that isn't water soluble, just for longevity. But painting on it works like a charm.

It's not anything safe. Dishwasher or hand wash. The paint just runs right off. Watch out what you wash with it.

When it drys, it is white'ish. Not like white spray paint, but when the carrier evaporates, the remaining Teflon is greyish-white. No thick residue. Like Mr. Kerr says, you can brush it off, but like any flaky powder, you may not be able to brush it all off depending on the surface. Good stuff. Most all other Teflon sprays have a messy wax or oily residue.

This type of paint was made to be sprayed over a painted surface. I dont see any harm in using it on other things, unless that object is made if real wood. There are clear coat paints made specifically for that so that the wood can stay protected.

ah ha - the great question. the answer is "it depends on who you ask". i think truly it has not been tested for food safety, because if it had they would put it in big bold letters all over the place. it is non-toxic so it's probably safe, and the safest you'll find for painting and not glazing over top. definitely not meant to be cut on with a knife.

Instructions say yes, but I didn't paint it. The white works really well where I installed it.

I see no reason you couldn't paint it white, except that the paint may interfere with a signal.

I have no mildew with this coated rack and live in a very humid region of the country. I have owned it for two years. The white paint coating on the top five dowels is beginning to flake off. I use wooden clothespins.

I cannot say for sure if the bird away will damage the fence. I doubt it would and would readily use it on my fence. I assure you the bird droppings damage many things, including painted surfaces. The bird away is really sticky and hard to get off your hands. Soap works somewhat, likely as a surfactant. I have used solvents like ethyl and isopropyl alcohol, and they work better. Acetone which is readily available in fingernail polish remover works well but probably will damage paint. I would use it to keep the birds away.

I see no reason why it cannot be painted. unless you have already put the oiled finish on it. If I had white cabinets in my kitchen I would have painted mine white.

According to the manufacturer these cannot be painted. The paint will eventually flake away and it does void the warranty. Having that said, there are paints out there that are designed for plastic. I have never heard of anyone successfully painting it without the paint flaking off eventually though.
